Does Postexercise Static Stretching Alleviate Delayed Muscle Soreness?
Buroker, Katherine C.; Schwane, James A.
Physician and Sportsmedicine, v17 n6 p65-66,69,72,76,81-83 Jun 1989

There was neither temporary relief of pain immediately after stretching nor a reduction in pain during the 3-day postexercise period. (Author/SM)
