Article Synopsis
- - This study introduces a new model for eliciting muscle pain using short-wave diathermy (SWD), which is non-invasive and addresses the limitations of traditional methods like injections or delayed onset muscle soreness.
- - The research focused on the shoulder, measuring pain intensity and pressure pain threshold (PPT) before and after SWD application, finding consistent pain levels and a significant decrease in PPT.
- - Results showed that SWD-induced pain lasted around 145 minutes, was reliably reproducible, and described as a manageable, continuous discomfort, making it a suitable method for studying muscle pain effects over time.
