Stabilometric and Baropodometric Evaluation of Osteopathic Scaphoid Tug Manipulation
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Experimental: Osteopathic manipulation TUG for scaphoid bone and Sham group: Sham osteopathic manipulation TUG for scaphoid bone for Manipulation and Osteopathic. Completed, enrolled 36 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a clinical, longitudinal, prospective and randomised study in which the subject will be assessed by stabilometric and baropodometric techniques on two occasions (before being subjected to the scaphoid tug manipulation for the experimental group or placebo technique in the case of the control group).
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The sequence of execution of the scaphoid TUG technique shall be applied as follows. Patient in the supine position. The inner hand of the intervener makes contact with the pisiform through the hypothenar eminence and ulnar border of the hand over the scaphoid tubercle, the outer hand reinforces the contact. The thumbs are directed to the sole of the patient's foot. The parameters are sought by bringing the sole of the foot into eversion, thus bringing the scaphoid into internal rotation (the direction of correction). In order to reduce the slack, the operator drops his body weight backwards while increasing the internal rotation parameter of the scaphoid. The manipulation is performed by associating a rapid traction movement with an increase of the correction parameter towards the internal rotation of the scaphoid.
The intervention will be performed in the same way as the intervention group, without actually performing the TUG manipulation on the scaphoid bone, only placing it in tension.
