Abstract:Background: Triceps surae muscle changes and range of motion decrease resulting from pathophysiological changes seen in subjects with CVI leading to important impairment of functional activities related to lower limbs in these individuals. Several studies have shown the benefits of exercise therapy focusing on triceps surae muscle strengthening to improve calf muscle pumping. Randomized studies using exercise programmes for lower limbs in subjects with CVI are still rare in the literature, leading to a weak in… Show more
