About

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

Full 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.
