Effect of Foam Roller Compared to Massage on Reducing Calf Muscle Tone in Healthy Subject

Обзор

Objective: This study aims to compare the effects of two techniques-foam rolling (FR) and therapeutic massage-on reducing the muscle tone in the calf muscles (gastrocnemius and soleus) of healthy individuals. Methods: A randomized, controlled crossover design was used with 40 healthy participants (aged 18-45). Participants were randomly assigned to either a foam roller or a therapeutic massage group. The interventions were applied to the dominant leg, and muscle tone was measured pre- and post-intervention using a MyotonPro device. The primary outcome was muscle tone (Hz), and secondary outcomes included muscle stiffness (N/m) and elasticity (D \[log\]). Results: The study will assess the effectiveness of each intervention on muscle tone, stiffness, and elasticity. It aims to determine whether foam rolling is as effective or superior to traditional massage in reducing calf muscle tone. Conclusion: This research will contribute to understanding the efficacy of foam rolling as a self-administered technique for muscle tone reduction and its potential application in clinical and athletic settings

Вмешательства

  • Другое Foam roller
    The foam roller is used for self-myofascial release (SMR) to reduce muscle tightness and improve flexibility. In this study, participants will use the foam roller on their dominant calf muscles, rolling it up and down at a controlled pace (30 rolls per minute). The pressure applied should be moderate, staying within a pain tolerance of 6/10 on the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The technique is repeated three times, with a one-minute rest between sets. The goal is to enhance muscle relaxation and
  • Другое Massage
    The therapeutic massage used in this study involves manual techniques to reduce muscle tone and improve flexibility in the calf muscles. It includes: 1. Deep Gliding Stroke: Sliding from the upper to the lower part of the calf to relax the muscles. 2. Soleus Compression: Applying pressure to the soleus muscle with the hands to release tension. 3. Calf Compression: Applying pressure to specific points on the calf to alleviate stiffness. Each technique lasts for 2 minutes, with a total intervent
