TI  - Does a light pressure instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization technique 
      modulate tactile discrimination and perceived pain in healthy individuals with 
      DOMS?
PG  - 18-25
AB  - This investigation measured the effects of a light pressure instrument assisted 
      soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) technique on tactile discrimination and pain 
      perception in individuals after strenuous exercise. Twenty-three subjects 
      underwent three different testing sessions: baseline measures and exercise, 
      24-hours (post) treatment and measures, and 48-hours (post) treatment and 
      measures. Outcomes included two-point discrimination (TPD) and pressure pain 
      threshold (PPT). Statistical analysis included parametric tests. For TPD, a 
      significant difference was observed between all time points (p <.001). Post-hoc 
      testing revealed a significant difference from baseline to 24 hours post (p 
      <.001) and 48 hours post (p <.001). For PPT, a significant difference was 
      observed between all time points (p <.001). Post-hoc testing revealed a 
      significant difference from baseline to 24 hours post (p =.005) and 48 hours post 
      (p =.003). A significant difference was not observed between 24 to 48 hours post 
      for TPD and PPT (p =1.00). The results suggest that a light IASTM technique may 
      produce a neuromodulation effect on local tactile descrimination and pain 
      perception in individuals with DOMS.
