Brief Summary: The goal of this randomized controlled pilot trial is to investigate the immediate effects of incorporating Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy MFT on pain sensitivity and motor performance in individuals experiencing Post-needling pain associated with lateral elbow pain The main questions it aims to answer are

Does incorporating Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy reduce Post-needling pain intensity
Does incorporating Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy improve pressure pain threshold
Does incorporating Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy improve maximum grip strenght

Participants will be asked to undergo pre- and post-treatment evaluations which include assessments of Post-needling pain intensity pressure pain threshold two-point discrimination threshold and maximum hand grip strength

Participants in the Experimental Group will receive Deep Dry Needling in the m Brachioradialis Ischemic Compression Cold Spray Stretching and Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy Those in the Control Group will not receive Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy

Researchers will compare the Experimental Group to the Control Group to see if the incorporation of Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy results in a reduction in Post-needling pain intensity and improvement in pressure pain threshold
Detailed Description: This randomized controlled pilot trial aims to investigate the immediate effects of incorporating Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy MFT on pain sensitivity and motor performance in individuals experiencing Post-needling pain associated with lateral elbow pain The study will enroll a total of 49 participants with 23 females and 26 males who will be randomly allocated to either the Experimental Group or the Control Group The Experimental Group will receive Deep Dry Needling in the m Brachioradialis Ischemic Compression Cold Spray Stretching and Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy while the Control Group will not receive Mirror Visual Feedback Therapy This random allocation is intended to minimize bias and enhance the internal validity of the study

Pre- and post-treatment evaluations will include assessments of Post-needling pain intensity pressure pain threshold two-point discrimination threshold and maximum hand grip strength Intergroup analysis will be conducted to determine if there is a statistically significant reduction in Post-needling pain intensity favoring the Experimental Group Additionally intragroup analysis will assess whether there are significant improvements in pressure pain threshold solely within the Experimental Group following the intervention

The findings of this study may suggest a potential benefit of integrating MFT into treatment protocols for individuals with lateral elbow pain experiencing Post-needling discomfort However further research will be necessary to fully elucidate the clinical implications of these findings and their applicability in healthcare settings
