Myofascial Release
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Official Title: Exploring the Effect of Self-Myofascial Release of the Upper Cervical Muscles on the Superficial Back Fascial Train
Brief Summary:
The primary objective is to examine the influence of the suboccipital muscles on the superficial back line. The investigators will measure the following as part of this objective:* Changes in biomechanical and viscoelastic properties of points within the superficial back fascial train measured by a handheld myotonometer.* Pain pressure threshold measured by algometry.* Ankle range of motion.* Foot plantar pressure changes.All participants will have a 5-minute self-myofascial release intervention.
