Clinical Trial Summary

Orthopedic Manual Therapy (OMT) is one of the branches of physiotherapy that has less evidence about its action and efficacy, but those who have had the opportunity to apply or receive it know its great benefits. Currently, worldwide, the approach given to physiotherapy goes hand in hand with the guidelines of the TMO, but in Colombia it is not seen in the same way. The objective of this TFM is to compare the effects of Finding-Oriented Orthopedic Manual Therapy combined with Foam Roller versus the effects of Foam Roller alone, specifically in terms of muscle power and lower limb flexibility in Colombian athletes. For this, a randomized controlled clinical trial will be carried out with two groups that will undergo different interventions. To measure the variables, the CMJ jump protocol will be used with the Optogait and the Wells or sit and reach test.


Clinical Trial Description

This research corresponds to an experimental study, a blind randomized controlled clinical trial, where a total of 87 people, men and women, of legal age, university athletes of collective disciplines, distributed in 2 groups will be evaluated: the experimental group will receive therapy with foam roller and with manual therapy guided by findings-oriented (n = 44) for 8 weeks, while the control (n = 43) will only receive the foam roller treatment. The variables will be measured with equipment and protocols validated in both groups. Evaluations will be made at the beginning of the intervention and immediately after the end of this period, all the data being unified in an Excel, assigning a code to each individual to maintain the privacy of the participants. As independent variables, sociodemographic data will be taken, as a result variable, the Maximum Repetition (RM) will be obtained following the protocol of a maximum repetition, the range of joint mobility using the goniometer pro app on an iPhone XR, flexibility with the Sit & Reach in V and the vertical jump measured with OptoGait. All variables will be measured pre and post intervention. As a result, manual therapy is expected to generate greater effects on the sports performance of university athletes in collective disciplines. Based on statistical processes, the data will be processed and it will be evaluated whether or not there are significant differences within and between groups. ;
