Treatment
Device,equipment |
Tow therapy A preceding group = "test" group: The traction for 10 minutes to which the vibration function was added. It's repeated for traction 30 seconds and suspension 5 seconds.
The load of traction: 40% of the body weight.
Three days a week for 1 week. And put 3 days (Saturday, Sunday, and Monday) as a washout period between 2 arms.
Tow therapy B preceding group = "control" group: The traction for 10 minutes. It's repeated for traction 30 seconds and suspension 5 seconds.
The load of traction: 40% of the body weight.
Three days a week for 1 week. And put 3 days (Saturday, Sunday, and Monday) as a washout period between 2 arms.
