Summary

In this randomized trial, the aim of study is compare acute and chronic effect of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation stretching and static stretching in individuals with shortness hamstring in proprioception and performance. The primary outcome measurement is proprioception (position sense and motion sense), the secondary outcome measurements are physical performance evaluations.

All exercises will be performed by the same physiotherapist in 8 weeks and 3 times a week. Exercises will be performed bilaterally and data from the dominant lower extremity will be used in the analysis. Exercises and assessments to reduce the effects of circadian variation will be performed at the same times during the research.
