단축된 슬괵근에 적용한 멀리건 기법의 효과 비교 = The Comparison of Effects Mulligan's Technique Applied to Shortened Hamstring

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of Mulligan's bent leg raise (BLR), two leg rotation (TLR) and straight leg raise with traction (traction SLR) technique on the change of shortened hamstring length. Methods: Sixty subjects participated in this study. The subjects were randomly assigned to either the BLR group (n=20) or TLR group (n=20) or traction SLR group (n=20). 90-90 SLR test was performed for evaluation of hamstring shortening at initial time of study. After intervention, immediate effect(immediately after intervention) and effect of maintenance (after 60 minutes from intervention) were assessed. Results: All three groups showed significant differences in the immediate evaluation and the post evaluation after 60 minutes on the change of shortened hamstring length compared to the initial evaluation. When three groups were compared, in the immediate effect, BLR and traction SLR groups were higher than TLR group (p<.05). And the effect after 60 minutes, BLR group was higher than the other two groups (p<.05). Conclusion: In the results of this study, three groups showed immediately and lasting effectiveness in flexibility of shortened hamstring. In addition, BLR and traction SLR groups were more flexible than TLR group in the immediate evaluation and BLR group had better maintenance of flexibility than the other two groups in the post evaluation after 60 minutes.
