Pre to post-treatment changes, with subjects who completed the full course of treatment, in their ability to demonstrate flexion relaxation (SEMG < 3.5 μV RMS).

SEMG-Assisted Stretching Group Pre-treatment (N=71) Post-treatment (N=71)
Flexion-relaxation achieved 34% (n=24) 86% (n=61)
Flexion-relaxation not achieved 66% (n=47) 14% (n=10)
Functional Restoration Only Group Pre-treatment (N= 23) Post-treatment (N=23)

Flexion-relaxation achieved 17% (n=4) 26% (n=6)
Flexion-relaxation not achieved 83% (n=19) 74% (n=17)
