Acute effects of two massage techniques on ankle joint flex.pdf
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if three minutes of petrissage and tapotement forms of massage would influence plantar flexors’ flexibility, and muscle power. Nineteen participants were randomly subjected to three conditions (control and two massages) before performing two power tests. Prior to the intervention, subjects completed ankle joint flexibility assessments.
The conditions were; (1) control, where subjects lay prone and had a therapist’s hands resting, (2) vigorous petrissage,
and (3) tapotement applied at a rate of 4Hz; all on the triceps surae.
Following completion of the intervention, subjects immediately completed a post-ankle joint flexibility test, followed by a drop-jump and concentric calf raise. The power measures were; concentric peak force, rate of force development,
and drop-jump height / contact time. The data showed a significant increase (p < 0.05) in ankle joint angle on the right
leg and a corresponding tendency on the left. No significant change was seen with the power measures.
Results suggest that massage can increase plantar flexors’ flexibility without a change in power and thus may be an alternative to static stretching during an athletic warm-up.

This was applied to one leg for a period of three minutes and then the other leg.

A percussive hacking style (Figure 3) was applied to the plantar flexors for duration of three minutes each leg as per the other two interventions. The strike rate of this technique was vigorous at 4Hz.
This was consistent throughout the total six minute time period. Consistency was ensured with the therapist wearing
a “Walkman” with earphones and a compact disc playing a beeping noise every 0.5 s. The therapist was instructed
to strike his right hand twice for each beat.
