What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Calf myofascial techniqueProcedure or surgery
A 3-pass superficial leg glide technique was applied first and then 5 minutes of the deep calf myofascial induction technique as described by Pilat.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Myofascial induction in gastrocnemius | Experimental | A 3-pass superficial leg glide technique was applied first and then 5 minutes of the deep calf myofascial induction technique as described by Pilat. Receives: Procedure: Calf myofascial technique |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Pressure pain threshold
The pressure at which the patient begins to feel pain with pressure is measured 3 times with an algometer.It is measured in newtons
Measured: Immediately before intervention.
Range of motion with knee extended
The joint range is measured in dorsiflexion of the ankle joint with the knee extended under load and is measured with an inclinometer in degrees.Measured in grades.
Measured: Immediately before the intervention.
Range of motion with knee flexed
The joint range is measured in dorsiflexion of the ankle joint with the knee flexed under load and is measured with an inclinometer in degrees. Measured in grades.
Measured: Immediately before the intervention.
Pressure pain threshold
The pressure at which the patient begins to feel pain with pressure is measured 3 times with an algometer.It is measured in newtons
Measured: Immediately after the intervention.
Range of motion with knee extended
The joint range is measured in dorsiflexion of the ankle joint with the knee extended under load and is measured with an inclinometer in degrees.Measured in grades.
Measured: Immediately after the intervention.
Range of motion with knee flexed
The joint range is measured in dorsiflexion of the ankle joint with the knee flexed under load and is measured with an inclinometer in degrees.Measured in grades.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Calf myofascial technique in people with Fascia and Trigger Point Pain, Myofascial, run by Mayuben Private Clinic at 1 site in Spain.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Pressure pain threshold (time frame: Immediately before intervention.). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Feb 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
