Comparison of Active Isolated Stretching Versus Myofascial Release of Knee Joint in Office Workers

Active isolated stretching (AIS) is a technique that involves stretching specific muscles or muscle groups while actively engaging the opposing muscles. It typically involves holding a stretch for 1-2 seconds and then releasing. This method aims to improve flexibility, increase range of motion, and enhance muscle function.

Myofascial release (MFR) is a technique used to release tension and tightness in the fascia, which is the connective tissue that surrounds and supports muscles and organs. It involves applying gentle, sustained pressure to specific areas of the body to help relax the fascia and alleviate restrictions. MFR aims to improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance overall movement and function.
