Clinical Trial Summary

Spinal manipulation is often used for its effect on pain, but more information is needed concerning its mechanisms of action.


Clinical Trial Description

The effect of spinal manipulation on the pressure pain threshold in asymptomatic subjects should be challenged by a validated sham procedure, regionally and remotely over time. Further information is needed concerning its duration and its size.

Research questions:

1. What is the regional effect of spinal manipulation on the pressure pain threshold in asymptomatic subjects, when compared to a valid sham procedure?

2. What is the remote effect of spinal manipulation on the pressure pain threshold in asymptomatic subjects, when compared to a valid sham procedure?

3. What is the duration of the effect of spinal manipulation on the pressure pain threshold in asymptomatic subjects?

4. What is the size of the effect of spinal manipulation on the pressure pain threshold in asymptomatic subjects over time? ;
