Comment on “Immediate effects of three different upper trapezius trigger point techniques on pain intensity and pressure threshold in students with cervical pain: a randomized clinical trial” - We read the randomized clinical trial assessing the immediate effects of three upper trapezius trigger-point techniques (strain–counterstrain, post-isometric relaxation, and muscle energy technique) versus a sham procedure in physiotherapy students with cervical pain and an active myofascial trigger point [1]. The pragmatic focus on commonly taught techniques, use of standardized outcomes (pain intensity, pressure pain threshold, and cervical range of motion), and inclusion of a sham comparator are notable strengths.

Setting the osteopathic research agenda: consensus, context, controversy, and capacity - The osteopathic profession achieved something unprecedented: 2,229 individuals from 42 countries provided their views on research priorities through the European Research Priorities for Osteopathic Care (PROCare) project - published in BMJ Open in October 2025 (Vaucher et al., 2025). Not only do the results have implications for research projects in the coming years, as members of the osteopathic community, we have also learnt a lot about ourselves in the process.

From guidelines to practice: collective learning through clinical audit of the IFOMPT cervical framework - The International Federation of Manual and Musculoskeletal Physical Therapists Incorporated (IFOMPT) cervical framework provides evidence-based guidance for assessing patients with cervical pain to identify potential vascular pathologies. However, implementation of clinical frameworks by practitioners remains challenging.

Barriers and facilitators to the use of Patient Reported Outcome Measures by Australian osteopaths - Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) are increasingly being used to quantify and inform valued-based healthcare both globally and in Australia. However, use of these measures in specific allied health professions, notably osteopathy, is lacking.

Comment on “Immediate effects of three different upper trapezius trigger point techniques on pain intensity and pressure threshold in students with cervical pain: a randomized clinical trial” - We read with great interest the recent randomized clinical trial by Todri et al. in the International Journal of Osteopathic Medicine [1]. This study provides a valuable contribution to the field of manual therapy through its rigorous, well-blinded design, comparing three established myofascial trigger point (MTrP) techniques – Chaitow, Lewit, and Jones – against a sham intervention. The inclusion of a sham treatment group is particularly commendable, as it helps control for non-specific treatment effects and enhances the study's internal validity.

Immediate Effects of Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy on Thoracoabdominal Mobility, Respiratory Muscle Strength and Pulmonary Function in Healthy Men: Preliminary Crossover Trial - Isolated high-velocity and low-amplitude techniques have been shown to be effective in improving joint mobility, supporting the gain of respiratory muscle strength and pulmonary function. However, it is not yet known if osteopathic manipulative therapy can improve these variables.

Breathing retraining and manual therapy for long COVID – A literature review - Long COVID continues to have health impacts globally. Dyspnoea, fatigue, exercise intolerance and musculoskeletal symptoms are common and have been linked to pathophysiological mechanisms such as dysfunctional breathing, dysautonomia and neurolymphatic dysfunction that might be assisted by breathing retraining and manual therapy.
