Clinical Trial Summary

This study evaluated the additive effect of myofascial release therapy on the brachial biceps on conventional management (TENS) in pain intensity, hand prehensile strength and upper limb functionality of individuals with lateral epicondylalgia.


Clinical Trial Description

This study determined the additive effect of the myofascial release therapy of brachial biceps on TENS in the variables pain intensity, hand prehensile strength and upper limb functionality of individuals with lateral epicondylalgia, compared to a group that received only TENS. This was done in a sample of 32 individuals, assigned in two groups: group A that received an application of TENS and group B that received an application of TENS plus myofascial release therapy.

Contrary to the hypothesis, the application of myofascial release therapy added to the application of TENS proved to generate a significant change only in the prehensile hand force with respect to the group that received only TENS. ;
