Muscle Hypotonia
Conditions
Interventions
The sample will consist of 120 individuals of both sexes, aged between 18 and 35 years. Study participants will be randomly allocated into four distinct groups using a simple lottery method with numbe
the placebo group (PG) will undergo myotherapy and a placebo procedure for photobiomodulation (the equipment will be positioned and turned on, but no light will be emitted)
group 1 (G1) will undergo photobiomodulation with an infrared wavelength and a dose of 7 J per point
group 2 (G2) will undergo photobiomodulation with an infrared wavelength and a dose of 9 J per point. The study will be double-blind, meaning that the evaluator will be blinded to the intervention eac
