Pain is a sensation felt in one or more parts of the body, and it is a bad feeling that bothers people. Every person who feels pain learns about pain early in life through experiences with injury. In recent years, chronic pain has begun to be accepted as a disease rather than a symptom. Therefore, pain does not always mean tissue damage. Although scientific studies have made rapid progress in our perspective on chronic pain, the mechanisms of pain have not yet been fully explained. Though many things have been tried, the continuation of pain and the inability to fully explain the pain mechanisms have increased the interest in complementary medicine applications. It has been shown that trigger points accompany many musculoskeletal pathologies within the concept of central sensitization, which has an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic pain. Dry needling therapy in trigger point therapy is often used as a minimally invasive complementary medicine option to manage pain. In this study, information about pain was examined in the light of current literature. We aimed to review the effects of dry needling therapy on the musculoskeletal system in chronic pain disease groups from a different and up-to-date perspective. After examining the literature and the concept of chronic pain and dry needling, the following conclusion was reached; When the effectiveness of dry needling is examined in chronic painful disease groups in the musculoskeletal system, dry needling, which is a minimally invasive method, is effective, but more studies are needed.

Objective: The effects of chiropractic manipulation, muscle energy technique and home exercise program on pain, depression and functional level were compared in patients diagnosed with sacroiliac joint dysfunction (SIJD) in this study. Material-Method: Forty-five volunteer patients aged 20-65 years who were diagnosed with SIJD participated in this study. The patients were tested through chiropractic and orthopedic examination methods, and aspects of dysfunction were detected. Patients were randomized into 3 groups: Chiropractic Manipulation Group (CM), Muscle Energy Technique Group (MET), Control Group. All groups were assigned a home exercise program. All treatment groups were evaluated with numerical pain scale (NPS), Oswestry low back pain disability questionnaire (OLBPDQ), Beck depression inventory (BDI) and algometer before and after treatment. Descriptive statistics were used in data analysis, Kruskal-Wallis tests in intergroup comparisons, Mann-Whitney U tests in pairwise comparisons, and Friedman, post-hoc Wilcoxon Rank tests were used for intragroup comparisons. The statistical significance value was set at p<0.05 in the study. Results: Of the 45 volunteers who continued the study, 27 were female and 18 were male, and their mean age was 39.47±9.92 years. According to the results of intragroup analyses, a significant difference was found in all examination methods, and as a result of the intergroup analyses, there was a significant difference in all examination parameters except BDI. In the paired comparisons, positive results were obtained in all examinations in the CM and MET groups compared to the control group, in all parameters except for BDI in the analyses between CM and MET, and in examinations performed after the 4-week implementation in favor of CM (p<0.05). Conclusion: In patients with SIJD, CM performed in addition to exercises was found to be more effective than MET and
