Filter by:Both motor imagery and action observation training, either alone or in combination with physical practice, have been shown to improve some clinical variables of interest such as strength and motor control. However, this has not yet been investigated in the pelvic floor musculature.
Mental practice (both in isolation and also in combination with real practice) has been shown to improve somatosensory and motor variables but so far no study has taken it into the study of women's health. Through this study we want to offer some interesting data regarding the effectiveness of mental practice combined with physical practice.
Fibromyalgia syndrome is characterized by chronic generalized musculoskeletal pain associated with fatigue, sleep disturbances and some biochemical markers. The European League Againts Rheumatism (EULAR) described an algorithm how to treat step by step these patients. The objective of this trial is to evaluate if therapeutic exercise is effective on fatigue, pain threshold, quality of life, quality of sleep, pain coping and biochemical and genetic markers. For this purpose, the investigators conduct a randomized controlled trial double-blind (patient and examiner). The investigators included patients diagnosed of fibromyalgia according to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR). Patients included one group receiving exercise therapy consisting of 3 treatment sessions a week over 10 weeks. The variables are measured at the beginning and end of treatment.
In this study, the investigators aim to compare the effect of extracorporeal shockwave therapy with ultrasound-guided piriformis coticosteroid injection in treatment of PS.
This study is to investigate whether combination of ultrasound-guided subdeltoidcorticosteroid injection and physiotherapy is more effective than either treatment alone in treatment of patients with chronic subacromial (or subdeltoid) bursitis (SAB).
Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience that is one of the main symptoms of temporomandibular disorder (TMD). One way to assess pain is through algometry. The aim of this study was to evaluate, by the pressure pain threshold measurements, the efficacy of a short-term conservative treatment for the management of temporomandibular disorders. This study is a randomized controlled clinical trial where 84 participants were diagnosed with myofascial pain according to the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (RDC/TMD), with a mean age of 44 years old ranging from 18 to 76 years old. These individuals were asked about parafunctional habits and the treatment was applied by providing an explanation concerning the role of pain, possible aetiological factors of the patient's TMD, the relationship between chronic pain and psychosocial distress, and its benign character. They also had to perform once daily application of hot packs on both sides of the face for 20 minutes and after that they must perform active free therapeutic exercise of mouth opening for 10 times. The pressure pain threshold of the masseter and temporalis muscles and the lateral pole of the condyle were obtained at baseline (T0), between 15 and 30 days after (T1) and at 75 to 90 days after (T2) representing the end of the treatment. Two groups of subjects were obtained. The first was considered the study group (SG) and included those who underwent the treatment proposed. The control group (CG) consisted of participants who did not undergo treatment because they did not believe in it.
