Study Arms (2)

Fascial Manipulation

EXPERIMENTAL

fascial manipulation is a manual therapy technique were to apply deep frictional massage to the deep fascial structure or point to increase its pliability

Other: Fascial manipulation

Running kinematics

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

the change in a range of joint angles during different phases of running

Other: Fascial manipulation

Interventions

Deep frictional massage

Fascial ManipulationRunning kinematics
