ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST) can help university athletes recover after exercise. The goal is to see if FST can make athletes feel less sore and tired after their workouts, which could improve their overall health and performance. A certified FST practitioner will guide the therapy, and after the sessions, athletes will fill out a questionnaire to share how they felt about their recovery.

To participate in this study, athletes must be UBCO students who are at least 19 years old and actively training. However, those who are under 19 or have a current injury or medical condition that affects their ability to train normally won't be able to join. This trial is not yet recruiting participants, but it aims to provide valuable insights into how FST might benefit athletes in their recovery process.
