  • Distinguished Lecture
    Past Present and Future of Joint Manipulation Stanley V. Paris PT., PhD, FAPTA N.Z.S.P., F.N.Z.S.P.(Hon Fellow & Life).,, N.Z.M.T.A.,(Hon Life)., I.F.O.M.P.T.,(Hon Life)., F.A.A.O.M.P.T., M.C.S.P., B.I.M. Abstract: Presented as the first Distinguished Lecturers Award, of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Manipulative Physical Therapists October 2011, the paper begins by addressing the richness of manipulative experience that caused the Founding Fellows to create the Academy. Speaking to his concerns that this richness seems to be forgotten by many practitioners he reviewed also the known effects of manipulation before then evaluating the evidence based literature criticizing much of it for being too basic and taking the profession back to where we were some fifty years ago before specific manipulative techniques were in vogue. Thus the current research is largely on non- specific regional techniques done for effect rather than for pathoanatomical and mechanical consideration. Many of the techniques being studied and promoted as manipulations ion the current literature do not justify to be called “manipulations” lacking as they do “skilled passive movements to a joint.” The paper argues for remembering that published literature is only one leg of the three legged stool of evidenced based practice, the other legs being patients wishes and culture, and the third being individual therapists expertise. Given the quality of much current physical therapy evidenced based literature Dr. Paris did not think that it was of sufficient scope and quality on which to base our practice.

Osteopathic Medicine is a branch of human medicine which was developed in the late 19th century in the United States. It is a philosophy of health care applied as a distinctive art, supported by expanding scientific knowledge. Its philosophy embraces the concept of the unity of the living organism’s structure (anatomy) and function (physiology). A frequently quoted saying of the founder of the profession, Andrew Taylor Still, is “To find health should be the object of the doctor. Anyone can find disease.” The term “Osteopathy” was chosen by Still, because “we start with the bones.” He related that osteo includes the idea of “causation” as well as “bone, ” and pathos means “suffering.” As Stefan Hagopian, DO states in an interview printed in Alternative Therapies, Nov/Dec 2001, Vol.

  • Effectiveness of the Muscle Energy Technique Versus Osteopathic

However, the treatment of this issue through thrust and muscle-energy techniques has hardly been researched. The objective of our research is to compare the effectiveness of thrust technique to that of energy muscle techniques in the resolution of sacroiliac joint blockage or dysfunction in middle-distance running athletes. Methods: A quasi-experimental design with three measures in time (pre-intervention, intervention 1, final intervention after one month from the first intervention) was made. The sample consisted of 60 adult athletes from an Athletic club, who were dealing with sacroiliac joint dysfunction. The sample was randomly divided into three groups of 20 participants (43 men and 17 women). One intervention group was treated with the thrust technique, another intervention group was treated with the muscle–energy technique, and the control group received treatment by means of a simulated technique.

  • Mechanisms Involved in the Sounds Produced by Manipulation in Synovial Joints: Possible Role of Ph Changes in Lessening Pain Levels
    MECHANISMS INVOLVED IN THE SOUNDS PRODUCED BY MANIPULATION IN SYNOVIAL JOINTS: POSSIBLE ROLE OF PH CHANGES IN LESSENING PAIN LEVELS Yulia S. Suvorova, PhD1, Ronald Conger, DC1 1Muscle-Joint Center Netherland, Bredalaan 75, 5652 JB Eindhoven, Netherlands Email address: [email protected] PH Changes Suvarova and Conger MECHANISMS INVOLVED IN THE SOUNDS PRODUCED BY MANIPULATION IN SYNOVIAL JOINTS: POSSIBLE ROLE OF PH CHANGES IN LESSENING PAIN LEVELS ABSTRACT The exact mechanisms involved in the sounds produced by manipulation of synovial Joints have not been unequivocally elucidated but a number of explanations have been put forward. We have reviewed experiments designed to explain these sounds, with results that were quite unexpected. We have also considered the composition of synovial fluid and how its pH may potentially change locally after the release of CO2 by physical manipulation. The insights gained provide a rational explanation for the sounds generated by Joint manipulation and the beneficial effects of manipulation on patients with Joint disorders and pain. We recommend that Joint manipulation should be prescribed as first-line therapy before drug therapy and expensive surgery is considered. (Chiropr J Australia 2017;45:203-216) Key Indexing Terms: Cavitation; Chiropractic; Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment; Synovial Joints INTRODUCTION Many people notice that when they move their Joints, particularly after a period of inactivity, they hear pops and cracks. In fact, most people experience this phenomenon – especially in their fingers, neck and knees. Usually Joint cracking and popping requires no treatment. However, if the cracking and popping in the Joints is accompanied by swelling and pain, a licensed health care professional should evaluate the patient.
