Abstract

myoActivation® assessment utilizes systemized movement tests to assess for pain and limitations in motion secondary to myofascial dysfunction. myoActivation needling therapy resolves the myofascial components of pain and is associated with immediately observed changes in pain, flexibility, and range of motion. The principal aim of this feasibility study was to objectively characterize the kinematic metrics of upper and lower body motion before and after myoActivation movement tests and therapy.
