Effect of Neuromobılızatıon on Stiffness of Scıatıc Nerve

Sciatic nerve neuromobilization techniques (tension and sliding) was applied to the dominant side lower extremities of all participants in the study. While the participant was trying to bring her chin closer to her chest by flexing her head and neck, she simultaneously brought her foot to dorsiflexion. After waiting 30 seconds in this tense position, the ankle, head and neck returned to neutral position and relaxed. 3 sets were repeated with 1 minute rest breaks. Sciatic nerve sliding was applied in the same starting position as tension. While the participants was trying to bring her chin closer to her chest by flexing her head and neck, she simultaneously brought her foot to plantar flexion.
