Commentary: Effects of combined treatment with transcranial and peripheral electromagnetic stimulation on performance and pain recovery from delayed onset muscle soreness induced by eccentric exercise in young athletes. A randomized clinical trial.

A commentary published in Frontiers in Physiology explores the potential benefits of combined transcranial and peripheral electromagnetic stimulation for young athletes experiencing delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). The authors suggest that this treatment method may alleviate DOMS by reducing compression on proprioceptive afferent terminals. They also discuss the role of ion channels in the molecular mechanism of DOMS. The commentary proposes that this combined treatment could compensate for lost proprioceptive feedback loops and improve DOMS symptoms. The author emphasizes the need for further research on this topic and declares no financial support or conflicts of interest. [Extracted from the article]
