Muscle Soreness Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Role of Manual Twirling Acupuncture in Reducing Biceps Brachii Muscle Pain and Stiffness After Weight Training in Healthy Untrained Individuals
Regular physical activity can help to prevent and control non-communicable disease. WHO recommends at least in adults to do moderate-vigorous physical activity includes muscle strengthening. But regardless the importance and recommendations of physical activity, not all of the world's population does it .Biceps Curling is a popular physical exercise which easy to do , it can strengthen the muscles in the upper body. However based on the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) in individuals who just starting to do physical exercise may experience pain and can become a barrier to do physical activity, so an approach is needed to prevent this and acupuncture is one of them. Currently, a lot of acupuncture research has been carried out to reduce the condition pain and stiffness after weight training, but there are not many study using manual acupuncture twirling in this condition . That's why the aim of this study Is to see the efficacy of giving manual acupuncture with twirling stimulation for pain and stiffness post weight training. The study method will be a Single Blinded Crossover Randomized Controlled Trial which will compare the efficacy of Manual Acupuncture twirling with Manual Acupuncture Sham for post-exercise pain and stiffness . The outcomes consist of Visual Analog Scale, Pain Pressure Threshold, Range of motion of elbow flexor at 24 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours post weight training
This is a clinical trial study with cross-over design with 1 week wash out period to evaluate and compare the effects of Manual Acupuncture twirling and Manual Acupuncture sham for pain and stiffness after Biceps Curling (Weight Training) on healthy untrained subjects. The subjects are 30 males/female and will be randomly assigned to 2 groups: (1) Manual Acupuncture Twirling/Manual Acupuncture Sham and (2) Manual Acupuncture Sham/Manual Acupuncture twirling group . The subjects will receive two times treatment on day 1 and day 7. The outcome will be assessed each before treatment (baseline) at 24 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours post weight training. Patients and the outcome assessors will be blinded to the group allocation. ;
