Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of foam roller and instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization on pain, functionality and performance in athletes with iliotibial band tightness
Detailed Description:
Subject In this study, the effects of foam roller myofascial massage and instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) (massage performed by applying light pressure to the skin with a tool) on pain, functionality and performance will be investigated in athletes with iliotibial band tightness. There are studies on both IASTM and Foam Roller Massage in the literature and they are popular applications recently. However, within our knowledge, when we look at the Turkish and English literature, no study has been found that compares these two therapeutic massages in terms of pain, functionality and performance.
Purpose Poor posture, facial traumas and stiffness cause tension in the fascia of that region and result in pain. This disrupts the complementary mechanism of the fascia, causing the structures attached to the fascia to be out of the normal sequence. Facial problems have an important place in athletes. Facial problems cause pain in the athlete, reducing the athlete's sportive performance and negatively affecting their functionality. In order to prevent these limitations and accelerate the recovery, the rehabilitation process is started after the surgery. Various exercises and myofascial massages are routinely applied to problems seen in athletes. Myofascial massage techniques can be used in athletes' problems for many positive reasons such as effective in a short time, rapid results, high success rate, risk-free and painless if experts do. Thanks to the findings to be obtained from our study, it is aimed to contribute to the literature with objective, evidence-based results in this field.
