Effects of hot or cold water immersion and modified proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation flexibility exercise on hamnstring length
Burke et al compared the changes in hamstring length resulting from modified proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation flexibility training in combination with cold-water immersion, hot water immersion and stretching alone. No advantage was found in using complete hot or cold immersion to increase h...
