EFFECTS OF MIOFASCIAL RELEASE AND PERCUTANEOUS MICROELETROLYSIS IN TYPE HEADACHE
EFFECTS OF MIOFASCIAL RELEASE AND PERCUTANEOUS MICROELETROLYSIS IN TYPE HEADACHE
A headache is a more common disorder and one that prevails over a lifetime of much of the
 population. Among the causes are in the stress and spasms of the pericranial musculature,
 presence of painful sensitivity in the region, decrease of pain threshold, and a presence of
 trigger points (PGs) that can also cause as headaches. The solutions for health and health,
 in addition to Percutaneous Microelectrolysis (MEP®), which is used in the application of low
 intensity galvanic current through the acupuncture needle. Although it is a very common
 pathology, it is still little studied and a lack of information is a question of solutions
 such as crisis of care. This work justifies the negative bones of CTT in university students,
 as this has repercussions on the quality of life, besides proposing a therapeutic approach to
 reduce the symptomatology. The present study aims to investigate the effects of myofascial
 release techniques, MEP® and an association of therapies, observing the impact on quality of
 life and repercussions on academic performance. This is a controlled clinical trial of a
 convenience-based approach, consisting of universities between the 1st and 10th Physical
 Therapy course of Estácio Ponta Negra, over 18 years of age, who are not present in the
 application of the questionnaires, It is necessary to use the medicine of the analgesic type.
 The volunteers are evaluated through the HIT-6 and SF-36 questionnaires, after a selection of
 pain evaluation, PGs and algometry. The randomization will consist of 4 groups, after a
 consultation and an immediate re-evaluation and a second time and a new intervention and
 re-evaluation. A descriptive and inferential statistics will be performed through the SPSS
 20.0 program. The normality of the data is observed by the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test. For
 a comparison between groups whose parametric data are applied or anova test with post hoc
 tukey comingue of significance of 5% (p <0.05). It is believed that the use of the
 association of myofascial release techniques and Percutaneous Microelectronics promotes
 greater benefits in tension headache.
Inclusion Criteria:

 -  Be over 18 years old, they will be present at the time of ordering, not being pregnant
 and not taking analgesic medication at least 24 hours before the intervention.

 Exclusion Criteria:

 -  More than 20% of the questionnaire data are incomplete and if during the research the
