Mechanisms of Skeletal Muscle Pain and Fatigue

The Nature of Hypnotic Analgesia and Placebo Response to Experimental Pain

“…In this sense, the placebo response is a nonspecific effect of the drug treatment. Similar nonspecific or placebo effects occur with other forms of treatment, including psychotherapy, 1 * 117 - 29 surgery, 8 and, we postulate, hypnosis. When a S believes hypnosis will relieve pain, similar nonspecific or "placebo" factors may operate as when a S believes a potent drug will relieve pain.…”

Inhibitory effects of excess sympathetic activity on parasympathetic vasodilation in the rat masseter muscle

“…VASOCONSTRICTION AND VASODILATION are generally considered to be involved in the basic physiological adjustments to the metabolic demands of skeletal muscles, and disturbances in intramuscular blood flow may be related to muscle pain and dysfunction (7,31). This hypothesis has been supported in recent studies that correlated muscle disorders with reductions in intramuscular blood flow (12) and muscle tissue oxygen pressure (24).…”

Documented Physiotherapeutic Approach in Post Corrective Osteotomy Procedure for Gunstock Deformity Caused by Old Supracondylar Fracture Malunion

“…faradism under tension [1] ,Paraffin wax bath, TENS [23] ,muscle energy techniques [17] , cyriax deep friction massage [2] and ultrasound therapy [23] modalities were used selectively.Results : Faradism under tension ,Paraffin wax bath, TENS ,muscle energy techniques, cyriax deep friction massage and ultrasound therapy modalities were used selectively with range of movement exercise in four phases and evaluation was done in every session. each phase was of 3 days at the end of 12 days re evaluation was done and found that there was a marked decrease in pain, inflammation [9] and increased range of motion.…”
