Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to study the effects of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization IASTM in healthy adult volunteers The main questions it aims to answer are

Does IASTM treatment have an effect on range of motion ROM as measured in the hip knee and ankle
Does IASTM treatment have an effect on lower extremity power Researchers will compare pre-test and post-test IASTM treatment intervention data to the pre-test and post-test data of the no treatment control intervention to see if IASTM works to change range of motion andor lower extremity power

Participants will

Complete a questionnaire on medical history and injury background
Have hip knee and ankle range of motion ROM measurements taken on both lower extremities using a goniometer
Complete three trials of vertical jump testing using a Fleage Floor standing vertical jump measurement tester with one warm up first
Complete three trials of horizontal jump testing using a Woanger 12x25 long jump mat and verified by a secondary measure using a tape measure with one warm up first
Be randomly assigned to either IASTM first treatment group or the waitcontrol first group
Receive IASTM treatment techniques including application of emollient to the skin to reduce friction on the surface followed by scanning the hamstrings quadriceps gastrocsoleus complex and Achilles tendon using the HG8-Scanner tool for 15 strokes in each direction Then the concave tool corresponding to the size of the structure being treated will be used HG6-Large Multi-Curve HG5-Medium Multi-Curve HG4-Small Multi-Curve for 15 strokes in each direction
Simply wait for 20 minutes the duration of time treatment with IASTM would require when completing the control treatment
Complete hip knee and ankle range of motion and vertical and horizontal jump measure testing at the end of the first session
Return within fourteen days after the first session in order to undergo the opposite experience IASTM first means waitcontrol second and vice versa
Undergo the same baseline pre-test measurements for range of motion and vertical and horizontal jump measure testing as the first session
Experience the opposite treatment for the same time period as the first session
Undergo the post-test range of motion and vertical and horizontal jump measure testing at the end of the second session for data comparison
