RESUMEN
The effectiveness of low-intensity red light on myofascial trigger points in skeletal muscle of mature rats was evaluated by electron microscopy and high-resolution respirometry. The revealed changes in mitochondrial ultrastructure and activity of the respiratory chain enzymes indicate the development of hypoxia in the simulation area. Under the influence of low-intensity red light on myofascial trigger points, a decrease in the number of destructively altered muscle fibers and stimulation of mitochondrial respiration were found. These findings indicate intracellular regeneration and the stimulating effect of low-intensity red light on plastic processes.
