A lumped stiffness model of intermuscular and extramuscular myofascial pathways of force transmission
Mechanical behavior of skeletal muscles is commonly modeled under the assumption of mechanical independence between individual muscles within a muscle group. Epimuscular myofascial force transmission via the connective tissue network surrounding a muscle challenges this assumption as it alters the force distributed to the tendons of individual muscles. This study aimed to derive a lumped estima...
متن کاملWhat Is Evidence-Based About Myofascial Chains: A Systematic Review.
OBJECTIVE To provide evidence for the existence of 6 myofascial meridians proposed by Myers based on anatomic dissection studies. DATA SOURCES Relevant articles published between 1900 and December 2014 were searched in MEDLINE (PubMed), ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. STUDY SELECTION Peer-reviewed human anatomic dissection studies reporting morphologic continuity between the muscular con...
متن کاملAdaptation of muscle size and myofascial force transmission: a review and some new experimental results.
This paper considers the literature and some new experimental results important for adaptation of muscle fiber cross-sectional area and serial sarcomere number. Two major points emerge: (1) general rules for the regulation of adaptation (for in vivo immobilization, low gravity conditions, synergist ablation, tenotomy and retinaculum trans-section experiments) cannot be derived. As a consequence...
متن کاملExtramuscular myofascial force transmission: experiments and finite element modeling.
The specific purpose of the present study was to show that extramuscular myofascial force transmission exclusively has substantial effects on muscular mechanics. Muscle forces exerted at proximal and distal tendons of the rat extensor digitorium longus (EDL) were measured simultaneously, in two conditions (1) with intact extramuscular connections (2) after dissecting the muscles' extramuscular ...
متن کاملManual therapies in myofascial trigger point treatment: a systematic review
Background and purpose: Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is thought by some authors the main cause of headache and neck pain. MPS is characterized by Myofascial Trigger Points (MTrPs). However, there are not many controlled studies that have analyzed the effects of the manual therapies in their treatment. The aim of this systematic review is to establish whether manual therapies have specific eff...
