Myofascial therapy

Running is a sport that involves repetitive movement and is particularly vulnerable to injury in the lower extremities. Myofascial release, on the other hand, is a manual method that is effective in increasing blood and oxygen permeability between tissues, renewing the tissue, protecting it from injury and increasing performance. The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of Myofascial therapy on sportive performance balance and injury risk in runners. The study will carry out on runners with a 3-month running history.
