Clinical Trial Summary

In this study, the effect of plantar fascia release with a magnetic fascial cork ball on hamstring and lumbar extensor muscle elasticity will be investigated.


Clinical Trial Description

The use of tools such as foam rollers or massage balls to resolve myofascial tension is highly preferred by both therapists and patients. It is theorized that the sweeping pressure generated during rolling causes the fascia to stretch and increase the range of motion. In addition, the warming caused by the friction during rolling can dissolve the adhesions between the fascial layers and restore the elasticity of the myofascial tissues. In addition to similar mechanical effects, the use of cork balls with magnetic properties is becoming increasingly common. Studies have shown that static magnetic magnets reduce pain, increase microcirculation and oxygenation and cause changes in presynaptic membrane function. As far as we know, there is no study examining the myofascial relaxation effect of magnetic balls in the literature. Evaluating the clinical impact and efficacy of this device which allow the person to perform self-massage might contribute the current literature. This study was planned to evaluate the myofascial relaxation caused by two different fascial cork balls with and without magnetic properties. ;
