@article { , title = {Dry needling and exercise for chronic whiplash - a randomised controlled trial}, abstract = {Chronic whiplash is a common and costly problem. Sensory hypersensitivity is a feature of chronic whiplash that is associated with poor responsiveness to physical treatments such as exercise. Modalities such as dry-needling have shown some capacity to modulate sensory hypersensitivity, suggesting that when combined with advice and exercise, such an approach may be more effective in the management of chronic whiplash. The primary aim of this project is to investigate the effectiveness of dry-needling, advice and exercise for chronic whiplash.}, doi = {10.1186/1471-2474-10-160}, eissn = {1471-2474}, journal = {BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {BMC}, volume = {10}, keyword = {Neck Disability Index, Whiplash Injury, Pressure Pain Threshold, Average Pain Intensity, Chronic Whiplash}, year = {2009}, author = {Sterling, Michele and Valentin, Stephanie and Vicenzino, Bill and Souvlis, Tina and Connelly, Luke B} }
