Self-myofascial vibro-shearing: A randomized controlled trial of biomechanical and related changes in male breakdancers

Introduction: This randomized controlled trial explored the practicality and effectiveness of a novel tool-assisted self-help device, one that combines vibrational oscillation, leverage, and the shearing effect from the edges, for promoting meaningful changes in key biomechanical tissue indices and related parameters.
