Does self-myofascial release cause a remote hamstring stretching effect based on myofascial chains? A randomized controlled trial
(MDPI, 2021)
Background: The hamstring muscles are described as forming part of myofascial chains or meridians, and the superficial back line (SBL) is one such chain. Good hamstring flexibility is fundamental to ...
Study on balance and postural control sccording to the stabilometry in indoor skydivers: a cross-sectional study
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: The wind tunnel is a compression cabin through which a stream of air rises homogeneously, generated by fans. To perform different acrobatics, indoor skydivers have to change their body ...
Sex differences in pre-season anthropometric, balance and range-of-motion characteristics in elite youth soccer players
(MDPI, 2022)
In soccer, injury epidemiology differs between males and females. It is clinically useful to know whether there are between-sex differences in selected characteristics relevant to primary injury risk ...
Comparison of resistive capacitive energy transfer therapy on cadaveric molars and incisors with and without implants
(Springer Nature, 2022)
Capacitive–resistive energy transfer therapy (CRet) is used to improve the rehabilitation of different injuries. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the changes in temperature and current flow ...
Temperature and current flow effects of different electrode placement in shoulder capacitive-resistive electric transfer applications: a cadaveric study
(Springer Nature, 2021)
Background: Impingement syndrome is currently estimated to represent 60% of all shoulder pain disorders. Capacitive-Resistive electric transfer therapy is aimed to provoke temperature and current flow ...
Neuromuscular response what is it and how to measure it?
(Scientific Literature, 2019)
The neuromuscular response or neuromuscular function is a set of biomechanical and viscoelastic properties about the muscular and fascia tissue. These characteristics are fundamental for the rehabilitation ...
Effects of diacutaneous fibrolysis in patients with tension-type headache: a randomized controlled trial
(Public Library of Science, 2023)
Background: Manual therapy appears to be effective for the relief of tension-type headache (TTH), just as diacutaneous fibrolysis (DF) has shown to be a beneficial technique for the relief of symptoms ...
Foam rolling vs. proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation stretching in the hamstring flexibility of amateur athletes: control trials
(MDPI, 2023)
Background: the use of stretching techniques in the sports world is frequent and common thanks to their many effects. One of the main benefits of stretching is an increased range of motion (ROM). Recently, ...
Efects of occipital‑atlas stabilization in the upper cervical spine kinematics: an in vitro study
(Springer Nature, 2021)
This study compares upper cervical spine range of motion (ROM) in the three cardinal planes before and after occiput-atlas (C0–C1) stabilization. After the dissection of the superficial structures to ...
Precision of ultrasound-guided versus anatomical palpation-guided needle placement of the ulnar nerve at the cubital tunnel: a cadaveric study
(MDPI, 2023)
Percutaneous electrical stimulation has been performed for years with only the assistance of anatomical landmarks. The development of real-time ultrasonography guidance has improved the precision and ...
