Clinical Trial Summary

Ankle mobility limitations are common in older adults. A possible treatment to restore joint mobility is manual therapy based on mobilization techniques, in this case, applied on the ankle joint. Previous research had proposed different treatment volumes (one to twelve sessions), but shown a different and non-consistent degree of effectiveness according to such factor. Therefore, this work aims to determine the dose-response relationship of manual therapy (talus mobilizations) on ankle range of motion in the older adult. Secondarily, this research will appraise whether a likely improvement in ankle mobility may have an impact on the overall mobility (i.e. gait, get up from a chair).
