    This increases the risk of broadening, smearing, and damage to the sarcomere. When microtrauma occurs to these structures, nociceptors (pain receptors) within the muscle's connective tissues are stimulated and cause a sensation of pain. [7] Another explanation for the pain associated with DOMS is the "enzyme efflux" theory.

    Post-Isometric relaxation: Treat by engaging the restrictive barrier in all planes. Reciprocal inhibition: Treat by contracting the antagonistic muscles, which causes the agonist muscle to relax through the reciprocal inhibition reflex arc. Joint mobilization using muscle force: Use muscle contraction to restore range of motion in a joint.
