Effect of Trigger Point Cryostimulation on Exercise-Induced Tremor in Adolescent Swimmers

NCT07480200 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 34

Summary

This study examines whether local cryostimulation of myofascial trigger points can reduce physiological tremor that occurs after intense physical exercise. Thirty-four adolescent competitive swimmers participate in a randomized crossover study comparing two conditions: local ice stimulation of trigger points and a control condition without intervention. Physiological tremor of the lower limbs is measured using accelerometry before and after a 30-second maximal tethered swimming effort. The study aims to determine whether targeted cryostimulation can attenuate exercise-induced neuromuscular tremor and improve post-exercise motor stability in young athletes.

Conditions

  • Physiological Tremor
  • Exercise-Induced Neuromuscular Fatigue

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Cryostimulation of Myofascial Trigger Points

Local cryostimulation is applied to identified myofascial trigger points in the quadriceps and hamstring muscles using cold packs for 60 seconds before a 30-second maximal tethered swimming effort.
