Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

Biopac Galvanic skin response 100B electrodermal activity amplifier (MP36 Biopac Systems Incorporation)
The skin electrodes were placed on the 2nd and 3rd toes on both legs of each participant. Aiming to be sure of the maximum contact of the pads sticking on the skin, the ventral surfaces on the 2nd and 3rd toes were initially cleaned with an isopropyl alcohol tissue before the pads were placed. They remained for a few seconds to dry, aiming to remove any sweat residue or unwanted skin that might influence the data reading process.
7 min continuously monitoring will take place during the intervention (7 min following the start of the experiment).
Thermo-Camera
Skin temperature will be measured using a thermo-camera (ThermaCam SC2000©, FLIR, Danderyd, Sweden) pre-post intervention. The thermo-camera will be positioned, pointing at the participant's entire body and monitoring the body temperature in degrees Celsius.
Monitoring will start when participants will take the final sympathetic slump position on the plinth before the intervention (4 min following the starting of the experiment) and following the intervention (20 min following the start of the experiment).
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring
Therapist placed the cuff of an ambulatory blood pressure monitor (Omron© HEM-9210T Healthcare, Co, Ltd, Kyoto, Japan) on the left arm of the participant. The monitor was used to monitor pre and post-intervention systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
Monitoring will start when participants will take the final sympathetic slump position on the plinth before the intervension (3 min following the starting of the experiment) and following the intevension (18 min following the start of the experiment).

Study Arms (3)

Sliding Technique Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in the sliding technique group first adopted the SSP. The therapist main-tained the head in a less flexed and closer to neutral position. During this process, they performed full dorsiflexion of the foot, ensuring that the movements allowed the nerve to glide through its pathway rather than creating significant tension

Other: Neurodynamic

Tension Technique Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in the tensioner technique group first adopted the SSP, then proceeded to enhance neural tension by simultaneously fully dorsiflexing the foot and fully flexing the cervical spine forward, thereby increasing tension throughout the nerve pathway. The technique is applied dynamically with relaxation intervals to prevent any potential negative effects on neural vasculature
