Summary

In the present study we will test the effects of myofascial induction technique in the muscles close to the application in the gastrocnemius muscle.

Detailed description

In the present study we will test the effects of myofascial induction technique on nearby muscles. The calf maneuver proposed by Pilat for myofascial induction will be applied and the effects on the pain pressure threshold of the trigger points of the flexor digitorum brevis biceps femoris extensor digitorum longus muscles will be observed.

Conditions

• Myofascial Trigger Point
• Gastrocnemius Muscle
• Manual Therapy
• Pain Threshold

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Myofascial induction in gastrocnemius muscle	A 3-pass shallow leg gliding technique was applied first, followed by 5 minutes of the deep myofascial calf induction technique described by Pilat.
