For each stretching technique described, 3 repetitions of 15 seconds duration will be performed of 15 seconds duration each, within the patient's tolerance threshold. In any case, the impossibility of performing any technique due to exacerbation of pain shall be recorded in a patient record created for this study, noting the technique in question and the reason for its technique in question and the reason for its non-application. Passive stretches shall be applied in the same order for all subjects. The physiotherapists in charge of applying the treatments will be trained in advance in the different techniques to be applied and will not in the different techniques to be applied and shall not intervene at any time in the two previous phases. Both the control group and the study group will receive their respective treatments two days a week for four weeks.
