  • The study aimed to assess the impact of scapular mobilization with myofascial release on the performance of butterfly stroke swimmers compared to scapular mobilization alone and no intervention.
  • It involved a randomized clinical trial with 30 swimmers divided into three groups: one receiving the full treatment, one receiving a sham treatment, and one with no treatment at all.
  • Results indicated that the sham group performed worse in terms of swimming speed, stroke frequency, and stroke length compared to the other groups, highlighting the potential negative effect of the sham treatment on swimming efficiency.*
