NCT04630899
The features of CAI were confirmed through studies that 64% to 77% had extra-articular conditions mainly related to calf tendon disorder. In addition, joints are laxity, sensory motors are deficient, and the range of dorsi flexion is decreased. this study is to investigate the effects of active joint mobilization(AJM) under weight-bearing conditions to stimulate various proprioceptors for CAI with deficiency in sensorimotor and postural control.
NCT06303141
The study aims to compare the effects of neuromuscular training and mobilization with movement on pain, range of motion, function, and disability in professional athletes with ankle sprain. Neuromuscular training focuses on improving neuromuscular control and stability, while mobilization with movement aims to restore joint mobility and function. By investigating the outcomes of these two interventions, the study seeks to provide insights into their effectiveness for managing ankle sprains in professional athletes.
NCT04661774
Diaphragm dysfunction, are refractory to drug therapy. This encourage investigators to explore new non-drug therapeutic paths, such as plantar reflexology (RP). The investigators proposed a comparison of the evolution of different parameters, quantitative and qualitative, to identify biomarkers and highlight the specific effect of RP on the diaphragm function, compared to placebo.
NCT04469088
Temporomandibular Joint Disorders (TJD) represent a set of conditions that involve pain and dysfunction of the temporomandibular joint. TJD are a frequent disability affection in the worldwide population and the 35% of affected present at least a symptom such as orofacial pain, mouth movement limitations and snapping or crying temporo-mandibular. Due to the increase of the incidence of the TJD the investigators propose to complete this study. A randomized controlled trial with parallel groups have been designed and blind evaluation of the response variable. The hypothesis is that dry needling produces a positive effect in the involved variables of this study in comparison with manual therapy. The aim of this RCT is to compare the effectiviness of the application of manual therapy in comparison with dry needling in the perceived pain, mouth opening, the degree of cervical disability and the pressure-pain threshold (PPT) of myofascial trigger points (MTrP) in patiens with TJD.
NCT04513535
The purpose of this study is to directly compare the effects of four distinct interventions commonly used in the treatment of shoulder pathology on shoulder range of motion (ROM) and strength in asymptomatic shoulders: * grade III oscillatory anterior-posterior glenohumeral joint mobilizations * an internal rotation (IR) "sleeper" stretch * supine upper-thoracic manipulation * cervical spine manipulation
NCT04351971
Background: Skeletal muscle-type pain is one of the main reasons for consultations in health centers. In Chile, it is estimated that the prevalence reaches 33% in men and 50% in women, increasing considerably with age, with cervical pain being one of the main conditions, estimating that 80% of the population has experienced cervicalgia at some time. lifetime. The main symptom is neck pain and restriction of movement, mainly affecting the mobility of the upper cervical region. Although there are studies evaluating the effectiveness of manual techniques, there are currently no studies evaluating the effects on cervical muscle activity and pressure threshold. Therefore, the objective of the present investigation is to evaluate the immediate effects of a manual therapy technique on the threshold pressure of muscular trigger points and on the muscular activity of the upper cervical region in patients with chronic pain and restriction of cervical mobility. higher. Methods: Clinical trial, randomized, prospective, double-blind study (patient and evaluator). The participants (21 subjects) were divided into 2 groups. The control group will receive a C0-C0 placebo mobilization technique and the experimental group will receive the C0-C1 mobilization technique. In both groups the technique will be carried out by mobilization cycles of 15 seconds and 3 seconds of rest for a total period of 5 min. Pressure threshold, activation of the superficial deep musculature and articular range of the upper cervical region will be measured.
NCT03017534
The mechanism responsible for improvement following manual physical therapy techniques is unknown. Previous studies have indicated both biomechanical and neurophysiologic effects which may be responsible for clinical changes observed. Yet, other studies report clinical changes following sham interventions. Through a mixed-methods design, this study aims to gain more understanding of the social and contextual factors that may be related to the improvement often observed following manual therapy techniques.
NCT02842918
No studies have investigated the effects of a supine thoracic spine manipulation (TSM) on neurodynamic mobility, as compared to a sham intervention. This study aims to determine the immediate effects of TSM on the Upper Limb Provocation Test (ULPT) and Seated Slump Test (SST) compared to a sham intervention in asymptomatic subjects with neurodynamic limitations.
