Immediate Effects of Mindfulness Deep Transverse Friction on Tennis Elbow

Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Tennis elbow; The prevalence in population is one to three percent, general distribution in middle-age no gender bias (Shiri et al., 2006). In northern European countries, it was found that 1.0% to 1.3% in men, 1.1; Mindfulness meditation; Deep Transverse Friction Massage; Mindfulness deep transverse friction

• Registration Number: TCTR20200612004
