This study investigates the effects of instrument-assisted soft mobilization (IASTM) and manual myofascial release (MFR) on the muscle activity of the biceps brachii. This study was conducted on 10 men and women in their 20s, and all subjects participated in the experiment for 3 days and measured muscle activity of the upper forearm muscles. On the first day, the muscle activity value was measured before the intervention, and the remaining two days were measured for muscle activity after the intervention of each manual therapy in a random order. All muscle activity values were compared and analyzed through the dependent t test and the independent t test. The before and after comparison of muscle activity values before and after each intervention was verified by performing the dependent t test and comparing the values of muscle activity between groups between each intervention after intervention by performing an independent t test. According to the results of this study, both interventions significantly increased muscle activity of the biceps brachii before and after intervention, and there was no significant difference in muscle activity values between groups after intervention. Therefore, both manual therapy (IASTM, MFR) are thought to be effective in improving neuromuscular control ability.

본 연구는 도구를 이용한 연부조직 가동술(IASTM)과 도수 근막이완술(MFR)이 위팔두갈래근의 근활성도에 미치 는 영향을 알아보기 위해 수행하였다. 본 연구는 20대 성인 남녀 10명을 대상으로 하였고, 모든 대상자는 3일 동안 실험 에 참석하여 위팔갈래근의 근활성도를 측정하였다. 첫 날은 중재 전 근활성도 값을 측정하였고, 남은 이틀은 임의의 순서 로 각각의 수기요법을 중재 후 근활성도를 측정하였다. 모든 근활성도 값은 대응t검정과 독립t검정을 통해 비교 분석되 었다. 본 연구의 결과에 따르면 두 중재(IASTM, MFR) 모두 중재 전후로 유의하게 위팔두갈래근의 근활성도가 증가하였 고, 중재 후 집단간 근활성도 값의 유의한 차이는 없었다. 두 수기요법(IASTM, MFR) 모두 신경근 조절 능력의 증진에 효과적임으로 사료된다.
