Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: Myofascial Release Technique
myofascial release therapy, the therapist applies light pressure by hand to find myofascial areas that feel stiff instead of elastic and movable. These stiff areas, or trigger points, are thought to limit muscle and joint movements, which can play a part in widespread muscle pain.
