Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Myofascial Release	Myofascial Release technique	Group A (Myofascial release technique) on low back 3 repetitions (30 second rest between reps), lasting for 30 s for each myofascial track for 1 set to targeted muscles (plantar fascia, gastrocnemius, hamstrings, and erector spinae). The position will be held for 10-15 seconds when a pain point is found lacrosse ball excellent for this type of massage because their surface area is much less than that of foam rollers.
Post facilitation stretch	Post facilitation stretch .	Group B (Post facilitation stretch) static stretching exercises for the low back (plantar fascia, gastrocnemius, hamstrings, and erector spinae). Static stretching involved 3 sets of 3 repetitions for each muscle with a 30-second hold and 30-second rest interval for each repetition.
