Moreover, it has proven its effects over the Central Nervous System and the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). Despite that previous studies have researched the role of patient's expectations and their relationship with the results of treatment, there is insufficient information concerning the effects of inducing expectations and the activation of the ANS during the application of widely used therapies, such as dry needling.",[95],"Neck Pain; Dry Needling; Motivation","2026-04-27",{"date":98,"type":99},"2026-05-01","ACTUAL",{"date":101,"type":99},"2021-02-23",{"date":103,"type":89},"2026-11-05",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
