A vizsgálatról
Mit akar kideríteni a vizsgálat
This randomized controlled trial was designed to investigate the effects of craniosacral therapy on pain, heart rate variability, joint stiffness, physical function, quality of life, body image, kinesiophobia, and dynamic balance in adult patients with gonarthrosis. The primary research question is whether craniosacral therapy, when added to a standard home exercise program administered by physical therapists, is more effective than a home exercise program alone.
A teljes eredeti leírásKevesebb
Participants will be randomly allocated into two groups. Both groups will perform a standardized home exercise program for six weeks. In addition, the experimental group will receive craniosacral therapy once weekly for six weeks, whereas the control group will receive the home exercise program only. Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline and after the six-week intervention period to compare the effectiveness of the two treatment approaches.
A vizsgálat 2 csoportja
- Craniosacral Therapy + Home Exercise ProgramA vizsgált kezelés
Participants in the craniosacral therapy plus home exercise (CST+HBE) group will receive one forty-minute craniosacral therapy session per week for six weeks. The standardized intervention protocol will include frontal and parietal lifting-spreading, ear pulling, temporal internal rotation, atlanto-occipital release, dural tube traction, rib lifting, and diaphragm harmonization techniques, applied according to the Frymann method. All sessions will be delivered by a physiotherapist certified in craniosacral therapy under the supervision of an osteopath (Doctor of Osteopathy, R.T.T.).
Kezelés: Craniosacral Therapy és Home-Based Exercise Program
- Home-Based Exercise ProgramMár használt kezelés, összehasonlításként
All participants will follow a standardized, step-by-step home-based exercise program consisting of stretching, strengthening, and range-of-motion exercises targeting the muscles surrounding the knee joint. The program will be prescribed to be performed daily for six weeks. To enhance adherence, participants will be provided with an illustrated exercise booklet and adherence will be monitored through weekly telephone calls and exercise diaries..
