Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Transverse Friction Massage (TFM) in Latent Myofascial Trigger points (MTrP) is more effective making this technique in two different ways.

Conditions

  • Myofascial Trigger Points
  • Myofascial Pain

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Transverse friction massage (TFM)

The TFM was describe of Cyriax as an effective method to treat soft tissues. It is a massage done always in perpendicular direction of damage tissue. During the massage, we can caused isolated contractions from the fiber muscles containing the latent trigger points.
