SUMMARY:

Introduction: Road running is a modality that provides benefits to its practitioners, however, in order to improve their performance, runners seek high volumes and intensities of training, which can cause an imbalance between mechanical stress and rest. To avoid this imbalance, a massage has been gaining popularity, percussive massage, which tends to reduce pain, improve muscle spasms and increase range of movement and increases local blood flow. Objectives: To evaluate the effects of percussive massage on runners' recovery after a 10 km race. Methods: this is a controlled, randomized and blind clinical trial, in which 40 runners of both sexes were randomly allocated into two groups: the experimental group, in which percussive massage (GMP) was performed and the control group, in which therapeutic massage (GMT) of the “effleurage” type was performed. Both groups received 10 minutes of quadriceps femoris massage. Participants were assessed at 6 moments: at baseline, before the race, immediately after the 10km run, immediately after the intervention, 24 hours after the intervention and 48 hours after the intervention using the pain and fatigue perception scales and recovery perception, isokinetic dynamometry and algometry. Data normality was assessed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Levene test. A mixed model ANOVA was used to determine the differences between the two groups. The Bonferroni post-hoc test was applied to identify differences when a significant F value was found. Statistical significance was set at 5% and a 95% confidence interval (95%CI). Results: The runners performed an initial assessment, and it was observed that before the race, both groups had pain and fatigue 0, and perception of recovery 17. After the race, both pain and fatigue increased to 2 and 3 respectively, and the recovery perception dropped to approximately 13, showing a drop in yield. However, after the interventions, both groups showed a good recovery, returning to the values of the first assessment. However, in the analysis between groups, no significant differences were found for the variables evaluated. Conclusion: We concluded that percussive massage and therapeutic massage had similar results for the variables evaluated for 10 km runners, without having superior results when compared.
