This study examines the mechanisms of pain and sensory-positional perception to evaluate personalized treatment approaches in patients with myofascial pain syndrome and idiopathic scoliosis. Laser, therapeutic ultrasound and local injection are used; patients meeting certain age and diagnostic criteria may take part. The study is being conducted as a non-phase study and is currently recruiting participants.

Cohort B: 1. Age between 13-65 years old. 2. Diagnosed as idiopathic scoliosis The diagnosis of scoliosis was confirmed by antero-posterior plain Xray with Cobbs angle larger than 10 degrees. Exclusion Criteria: 1.Cohort A: Those having active infection, malignancy, and hematological diseases were excluded. The patients had received local injection at upper trapezius within 6 months are also excluded. 2.Cohort B: 1. Those having active infection, malignancy, and hematological diseases were excluded. 2.
