简要总结
The aim of this study is investigate the effects of progressive relaxation and myofascial release technique on blood flow velocity, pain, premenstrual symptoms and quality of life in premenstrual syndrome patients. There are tree groups in the study. These groups are; progressive muscle relaxation group, myofascial relaxation technique and control group. Evaluations will be made by another physical therapist who is blinded to the groups. Participants will be evaluated within the first 3 days of their menstrual cycle. Baseline assessment and post- treatment assessment will be done. Follow-up evaluation will be done on the fifth cycle, two cycles after the post-treatment evaluation.
详细描述
The aim of this study is investigate the effects of progressive relaxation and myofascial release technique on blood flow velocity, pain, premenstrual symptoms and quality of life in premenstrual syndrome patients. The study planned as a single-blind randomized controlled trial. The volunteers who were invited to the study and signed the voluntary consent form will be randomized via random allocation software to divided into 3 groups. These groups are; progressive muscle relaxation group, myofascial relaxation technique and control group. Evaluations will be made by another physical therapist who is blinded to the groups. Participants will be evaluated within the first 3 days of their menstrual cycle. Baseline assessment will be done in the first 3 days of the first cycle, after first treatment acute assessment will be done. Post-treatment evaluation will be done in the first 3 days of the 3rd cycle after treatment for two cycles. Follow-up evaluation will be done in the first 3 days of the fifth cycle, two cycles after the post-treatment evaluation.

结局指标
主要结局
Change from Baseline Blood Flow Rate at Two Menstrual Cycle
时间窗: Baseline and 8 weeks
Blood flow rate will be evaluated with the portable vascular doppler. Measurements will be made from the right or left common iliac artery, branches of the abdominal aorta, and the ipsilateral femoral artery. After the ultrasound gel is applied to the measurement area, the probe will be placed at an angle of 30° and the measurement will be taken.
Follow- up Evaluation Blood Flow Rate
时间窗: 8 weeks through study completion
Blood flow rate will be evaluated with the portable vascular doppler. Measurements will be made from the right or left common iliac artery, branches of the abdominal aorta, and the ipsilateral femoral artery. After the ultrasound gel is applied to the measurement area, the probe will be placed at an angle of 30° and the measurement will be taken.
