Filter by:The present study aims to examine the mechanical changes following dry needling of the quadriceps muscle. To this end, structural and mechanical changes in quadriceps muscle activity will be measured using M-mode ultrasound. The quadriceps muscle strength will also be assessed with dynamometry. In addition, the knee joint range will be checked by means of a goniometry procedure. The subjects will be assessed before and after the application of a dry needling technique on the quadriceps muscle to determine possible changes in the measured variables.
The primary aim of this study is to investigate the effects of different types and durations of gastrocnemius stretching on the viscoelastic properties of the gastrocnemius muscle, Achilles tendon, and plantar fascia.In addition, pain threshold of the gastrocnemius muscle and plantar fascia, as well as on hamstring tightness will be measured.
The aim of this study is: To compare the acute and long-term affects of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) vs foam rolling on knee and hip flexibility and performance in soccer players.
The aim of this research is to compare the effect of mulligan bent leg raise and contract relax technique on hamstring flexibility in office workers with sedentary life styles.
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.
The scapula provides the base of the kinetic chain, which is stabilized by the surrounding muscles. Considering that activating the scapular musculature to stabilize the spine would restore the relationship between body segments, analyzing the scapular muscle activations in the treatment of hyperkyphosis may be a crucial component of an effective therapeutic program. Video games can be used to stimulate scapular muscles in children with thoracic hyperkyphosis because a game-based exercise program has been observed to increase voluntary motor control in children, thereby promoting selective muscle activation. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of video game therapy on the activation of scapular muscles and postural stability in children with thoracic hyperkyphosis, as well as the contribution of these variables to upper extremity performance.

This randomized control trial was conducted to investigate the efficacy of trigger point dry needling which is a modern treatment intervention compared with ischemic compression release in the patients having neck pain due to myofascial trigger points.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of the HyperVolt percussive massage device, body tempering, and dry cupping to static stretching of the hamstrings of healthy adults aged 18-39 years on the active knee extension and back saver sit-and-reach test.While these modalities are frequently used in healthcare settings there is a paucity of research regarding effectiveness. If the effects on flexibility are comparable, patients could save time and money by performing static stretching.
The goal of this clinical trial was to compare the effect of two different types of stretching techniques in elderly population. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the immediate effect (after a single intervention) of these stretching techniques on muscle flexibility, amount of knee joint motion and muscle activity? 2. What is the effect of a four week intervention program of these stretching techniques on muscle flexibility, amount of knee joint motion and muscle activity? There were three groups with ten randomly allocated participants in each group. Intervention group I was given a stretching technique called contract-relax technique and the Intervention group II was given static stretching. The third group was not given any treatment and was taken as a control. The main aim was to find out that whether the two techniques are effective or not and which one of the two is better than the other in terms of improvement in the above mentioned parameters.
