On “Increasing muscle extensibility...” Weppler CH, Magnusson SP. Phys Ther. 2010;90:438–449. This perspective article was very interesting and thought provoking; however, I was slightly skeptical about your conclusions in the section on neuromuscular relaxation. Specifi cally, I am having trouble reconciling my clinical experience with your suggestion that an increase in extensibility during a...
متن کاملIncreasing muscle extensibility: a matter of increasing length or modifying sensation?
Various theories have been proposed to explain increases in muscle extensibility observed after intermittent stretching. Most of these theories advocate a mechanical increase in length of the stretched muscle. More recently, a sensory theory has been proposed suggesting instead that increases in muscle extensibility are due to a modification of sensation only. Studies that evaluated the biomech...

متن کاملEffects on Hamstring Muscle Extensibility, Muscle Activity, and Balance of Different Stretching Techniques
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two different stretching techniques on range of motion (ROM), muscle activation, and balance. [Subjects] For the present study, 48 adults with hamstring muscle tightness were recruited and randomly divided into three groups: a static stretching group (n=16), a PNF stretching group (n=16), a control group (n=16). [Methods] Bot...
