Patients with lower back pain (LBP) often show a greater tendency for asymmetry in motor control in the form of pathological muscle activation compared to healthy individuals. Functional leg length discrepancies (fLLD) are suspected to be involved in the development of LBP. In addition, the thoracolumbar fascia, centre of a pelvic corset system, influences
Delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) refers to pain and discomfort in people after participating in strenuous exercise and physical activities. There is still a debate about the origin of pain and discomfort. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the muscle soreness, including metabolite or lactate accumulation, microtrauma, and inflammation within the skeletal muscle. The lactic
Massage or manual therapy application on one site on a myofascial chain has been shown to affect the range of motion of other sites along the chain. For example, foam rolling on the plantar surface led to an acute increase in the dorsal thigh and lower back range of motion. This suggests that fascial chains
