The subjects 10 4 yr Physical Therapy students of FEU-NRMF who is either male or female, whose age is 19-21 yr old ad who complains of musculoskeletal pain in the Upper back. The subjects will undergo 2 different methods of assessment: a flat palpation of a relaxed muscle and the use of a current (TENS) to elicit the tender spots within the muscle. The significance of these two is to compare whether which one is more reliable and accurate in locating trigger points regardless of the instruments used and how it was conducted, thus giving the physical therapist more benefit as to efficiency, time and convenience especially in patients with complains of musculoskeletal pain. After a day in which trigger mapping technique and palpation was put into test, the result of the conducted experimental study revealed that the trigger mapping technique versus palpation on both upper trapezius is within the accepted region of the significance level of a test with Z= <-1 and Z= >1 However, both rhomboids and both middle traps significance level falls under the rejection region. If the Z value deviates from the stated value then it lies on the rejection of the significance level of a test, however if the value is less than -1 or greater than 1 then we can say that it lies the accepted region of the significance level of a test that will prove the relationship of trigger mapping and palpation in assessment of trigger points of a were on muscle.

The subjects 10 4 yr Physical Therapy students of FEU-NRMF who is either male or female, whose age is 19-21 yr old ad who complains of musculoskeletal pain in the Upper back. The subjects will undergo 2 different methods of assessment: a flat palpation of a relaxed muscle and the use of a current (TENS) to elicit the tender spots within the muscle. The significance of these two is to compare whether which one is more reliable and accurate in locating trigger points regardless of the instruments used and how it was conducted, thus giving the physical therapist more benefit as to efficiency, time and convenience especially in patients with complains of musculoskeletal pain. After a day in which trigger mapping technique and palpation was put into test, the result of the conducted experimental study revealed that the trigger mapping technique versus palpation on both upper trapezius is within the accepted region of the significance level of a test with Z= <-1 and Z= >1 However, both rhomboids and both middle traps significance level falls under the rejection region. If the Z value deviates from the stated value then it lies on the rejection of the significance level of a test, however if the value is less than -1 or greater than 1 then we can say that it lies
the accepted region of the significance level of a test that will prove the relationship of trigger mapping and palpation in assessment of trigger points of a were on muscle.
