The Effect of Brief Skin Cooling on Isometric Muscle Strength

NCT06079437 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 15

Last updated 2023-10-12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There is sympathetic innervation of the muscular spindle. The application of cold to the skin provides an increase in sympathetic activity. In rehabilitation practice, short-term local cold is applied to the skin to provide motor facilitation. The aim of this study was to examine whether short-term local cold application provides an increase in isometric contractile strength and, if so, whether this effect is related to muscle spindle activity.
