Effect of interventions on the 
The ROM was tested in four out of the six groups. Three groups underwent intervention techniques (NM, nNM and ST) and a fourth group only executed the ROM testing technique; the other two groups, without ROM testing, served to control the putative effect of ROM testing and superficial leg temperature on excitability scores.The analyses indicated an increase of ROM along the three testing points ((a) Hip ROM amplitude change along the three testing times for the different groups. Section (b) shows the same responses with groups pooled (as responses along time did not differ between groups). In all groups, ROM increased from PRE to POST, and the change remained at post2. Inset b.1 represents individuals' responses. Scores are means and standard deviations.
