Investigation of the Effectiveness of Myofascial Release Technique on Performance Parameters and Injury Risk in Young Basketball: A Randomized Controlled Study
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Myofascial Release Therapy for Sports Physical Therapy and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 60 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
In this study, it is aimed to remove the limitations that cause asymmetry and weak connections in functional movement patterns with myofascial relaxation method to be applied to certain muscles and to remove the obstacles in front of the power factor as a result of its application, to reach the highest efficiency of the athlete's performance and to reduce the risk of injury in the musculoskeletal system.Study; It was planned as a control group (n:30) and an intervention group (n:30). Apart from routine training, the intervention group will be treated twice a week for 6 weeks before the training. On the other hand, no application will be made to the control group other than routine training. The evaluations are; It will be done at the beginning of the study and after the 6-week period.

Interventions
The increasing number of basketball players also increases the risk of sports-related injuries. Basketball has the highest injury risk of all sports because the game is so powerful and fast moving. Myofascial release therapy; ıt is a form of manual therapy applied on the muscle fascia complex to restore optimal length, reduce pain and improve functions. It is known to be effective in providing rapid relief of pain and tissue sensitivity. By restoring the length and health of the restricted connective tissue with the myofascial release therapy, it aims to relieve pressure on pain sensitive structures such as nerves and blood vessels, as well as improves sports performance.
