Summary

The use of the dry needling technique has become widespread in recent years for the treatment
 of musculoskeletal pain. Although dry needling has been shown to be effective in the
 treatment of shoulder pain, elbow pain, headache, etc., we do not yet have a clear
 understanding of the mechanisms of action that justify its beneficial effects.
 
 In this study, we propose to analyse the biochemical markers of pain generated by the
 application of a dry needling technique on the lumbar musculature in patients with mechanical
 lumbar pain of non-specific origin.
 
 The aim of this study will be to evaluate the effects of dry needling technique on the
 plasmatic concentration of biochemical markers.Furthermore, the test subjects will be
 randomly distributed into two groups.
 
 An experimental group where the subjects will receive a real dry needling technique.
 
 Another group will be treated with a sham technique.
