Muscle Injuries
Mild injuries do not cause a clear functional defect. Injuries that clearly hinder normal functioning belong to class II. Class III refers to a serious injury involving a total muscle rupture and loss of function. Early immobilization limits the size of the connective tissue scar. If immobilization lasts for more than one week, the settling of new muscle cells will be a problem; they will not settle parallel with old cells. Mobilization promotes parallelism of muscle cells, circulation, scar tissue resorption and stretching capacity.
