Comparison of the effects of passive stretching vs. sciatic nerve gliding in soccer players presenting with short hamstring syndrome.
Soccer players from three teams in the region of Murcia (Spain) were recruited and randomly divided into three groups: control group, experimental group 1 and experimental group 2.
In the control group passive shoulder mobilization will be applied, in experimental group 1 sciatic nerve gliding will be applied and in experimental group 2 passive hamstring stretching will be applied.
Treatments will be performed once a week for 4 weeks and measurements will be taken at week 1 and 4.
