Objective: Revision of hypothesis, whether the success of osteopathic
treatment at patients with chronic lumbago is bigger with
automobilisations, or respectively whether the long-term result can be
improved.
Design: Controlled, randomised, single-blinded follow-up study.
Subjects and methods: Randomised separation of the 20 patients into
10 patients of group 1 (test group) and 10 patients of group 2 (control
group).
Interventions: 3 treatments at intervals of 10 days and a check-up 8
weeks after the last treatment.
Results: Regarding intensity of pain and quality of life the success of
treatment was higher for the group without automobilisations than for the
group with automobilisations. The long-term result of osteopathic
treatment showed that the group with automobilisations did better than
group 2 regarding the intensity of pain and was even statistically
significantly better regarding the quality in life.
Conclusion: Automobilisations do not improve the success of osteopathic
treatment. However the long-term result of osteopathic treatment that is
supported by automobilisations is statistically significantly better. - presented at
