本研究旨在探討靜態伸展運動經皮神經電刺激對延遲性肌肉酸痛症狀之影響。28位健康男、女學生隨機分派到(1)接受15分鐘的股四頭肌靜態伸展運動(2)接受15分鐘經皮神經電刺激在股四頭肌上(3)控制組。
受試者皆進行登階運動來誘發非慣用腳的股四頭肌產生延遲性肌肉酸痛。資料的收集包括3個依變相：關節活動度、肌肉疼痛指數及腿圍腫脹程度。並測量運動前及運動後立刻、24、48及72小時不同治療方法的差異性。資料收集後以二因子變異數分析考驗其差異結果。研究結果顯示：關節活動度在治療與時間因子的交互作用達顯著水準(p<.05)；肌肉疼痛指數與腿圍腫脹在時間因子變項上達顯著水準(p<.05)。因此，本研究顯示靜態伸展運動和經皮神經電刺激在治療DOMS症狀後關節活動度的改善是有療效的。雖然兩組在肌肉疼痛與肌肉腫脹比控制組改善，然未達統計顯著水準。　

Abstract
　　The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of static stretch exercise and TENS on DOMS. Twenty-eight health volunteers were randomly assigned to three groups：
(a) Subjects who 15min static stretch quadriceps (b) subjects with TENS on quadriceps for 15 min (c) control group. The step test required subjects to do their non-domain lower extremity to exhaust and assured that DOMS would be produced. Data were collected on three dependent variables
：ROM，MSI，MSC. Data were collected on five occasions：pre-and post-induced DOMS and 24、48、and 72 hours after treatment. Two-way ANOVA were used to compare the statistical difference. The results indicated that the ROM of treat over the time was interaction singnificantly (p<.05). The main effect for time factor in MSI and MSC were revealed significant difference (p<.05). Thus, this study suggest that static stretch exercise and TENS are effective in treat ROM but on MSI and MSC may not be an accurate indicate on DOMS.
