Please take time to read this form carefully and ask any questions you may have.

    Purpose of the Study: The goal of this study is to assess the impact of contrast therapy on muscle recovery, inflammation, and participant-reported well-being. Your participation will help researchers understand the potential therapeutic benefits and inform future clinical applications.
