Dry needling of the flexor digitorum brevis muscle reduces postural control in standing: A pre‐post stabilometric study

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 243, Issue 3, Page 545-554, September 2023., 2023
After flexor digitorum brevis muscle, dry needling standing balance is reduced. Surface with eyes closed, laterolateral and anteroposterior medium speed of the center of pressure variables worsened after Flexor brevis dry needling. It is necessary to recommend rest and measures to avoid falls after dry needling. Abstract There are studies that show the
