In both groups immediately after the second meeting with the re-evaluation electrodiagnostic tests of functional performance and completion of a questionnaire by volunteers Boston is repeated. To assess the reliability of the effect of treatment, all evaluations are done after two weeks. Intervention 2: Volunteers are randomized into two treatment groups. In the intervention group DN, DN two sessions with an interval of two days of one another, occurs.
