Study Summary
Movement and loading asymmetry have been associated with injury risk for a variety of both acute and chronic musculoskeletal injuries. In addition, asymmetric movements have been identified as compensatory strategies to allow for ambulation in a variety of post-operative populations. Osteopathic physicians have been assessing both structure and function through the use of structural evaluation techniques along with postural assessment that can identify somatic dysfunction. However, no studies have identified the ability of an osteopathic structural evaluation and postural assessment to identify potential movement disorders and loading asymmetry. Therefore, the primary objective of this study is to determine the acute impact of an osteopathic manipulation on restoration of side-to-side symmetry during walking gait in participants who are categorized as having lower extremity dysfunction. We enrolled 51 participants who are pain-free and without a history of major orthopaedic injuries that required surgical intervention. Each subject completed an osteopathic structural evaluation and postural assessment along with an osteopathic manipulation. All participants completed instrumented gait analyses before and after the osteopathic manipulation using a motion capture system and an instrumented treadmill to determine the participant's movement and loading asymmetry during walking.
