Study Overview

Brief Summary

Fatigue influences the kinematics of the knee. Decreasing the tone of the suboccipital musculature may decrease the tone of the knee flexors. Inhibition of the suboccipital musculature is used to improve ischiosural muscle tension.

The main objective of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the stretching of the miodural bridge in the modification of the posture in professional soccer players of 3rd division.

Randomized clinical trial. 30 players will be randomized to the two study groups: experimental (technique of stretching technique of the miodural bridge) and control (without intervention). A blinded evaluator will perform three evaluations: pretreatment, post-treatment and follow-up. The study variables will be: modification of posture and weight distribution (plantar pressure platform). The sample distribution will be calculated using a Kolmogórov-Smirnov analysis. The changes after each evaluation will be analyzed with the t-student test of related samples and through an ANOVA of repeated measures the intra and intersubject effect will be observed. The effect size will be calculated using Cohen's formula.

After stretching the miodural bridge, it is expected to see improvement in posture changes.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change from baseline posture modification after treatment and at month

Time Frame: Screening visit, within the first seven days after treatment and after one month follow-up visit

An evaluation will be carried out with a pedometric platform. For the evaluation of plantar pressures, we use a plantar pressure platform (Podoprint® S10Pro model). This platform has 4,096 sensors, which allow a maximum pressure of 100 N / cm2 per sensor and has a sampling frequency of 150 Hz. All measurements will be made in accordance with international standards for anthropometric evaluation. All the evaluated players will adopt a relaxed and inert bipedal orthopedic position (arms held at the sides of the body, barefoot, with clothes that allowed to see the feet, legs and knees). With eyes open and looking at a fixed point, at a distance of 1.50 m for 20 seconds.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Change from baseline modification of the weight distribution after treatment and at month(Screening visit, within the first seven days after treatment and after one month follow-up visit)
