    Abstract

    To establish if Compression Therapy (CT) applied to latent trigger points causes a peripheral sympathetic nervous system (SNS) response To quantify the sympatho-excitation by measuring skin conductance in the hands To investigate if a manual therapy technique which specifically targets muscle tissue can elicit a SNS response
