Degenerative joint disease usually leads to functional failure and pain in the affected parts of the musculoskeletal system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of fascial relaxation for tense muscles in the affected hip joint by comparing this method and classic physiotherapeutic rehabilitation in patients after hip arthroplasty with regard to the range of motion, presence of pain and quality of life.
