Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

There are studies investigating the effect of different massage methods on muscle fascia stiffness but the results do not support each other. In addition, there is no study to investigate the effect of MLD on muscle fascia stiffness. The aim of this study is to determine the acute effect of MLD and classical (Swedish) massage (KM) on muscle fascia stiffness after exercise.
