Introduction: the ankle sprain injury is very common in sport, with a high rate of relapse. They tried to show the efficacy of the osteopathic approach, doing axis and cuboid manipulations to ultrasonography (US). The hypothesis was that the osteopathic approach would improve the variants proposed while US therapy wouldn’t be so effective.Methods: a pilot study was conducted with two groups of 20 patients. In the control group there was an intervention by US for 5 minutes al 0.2 HZ, three sessions during a week. The intervention group received an osteopathic approach with high velocity techniques (HVLA), in axis and cuboid. Variables as mobility were measured with goniometer, pain were measured with VAS and proprioception were measured with “Star Leg Proprioception”
Results: for planta flexion (FP), the experimental group increased by 75% while the control 40%. For dorsal flexion (FD), the control group improved by 35% whereas the experimental did 60%. For pain, the control group showed a 45% decline while the experimental 80%. For proprioception, the results were not significant.
Conclusion: osteopathic treatment (C2 and cuboid manipulation) shows significant improvements in all variables except proprioception. - Abstract

Introducció: l’esquinç de turmell és una lesió molt freqüent a l’esport, amb un alt índex de recaigudes. S’intentava demostrar l’eficàcia de l’abordatge osteopàtic (manipulacions a C2 i a cuboides) davant de l’ultrasò (US). La hipòtesi plantejada va ser que, amb l’abordatge osteopàtic, les variants millorarien més que amb l’US.
Metodologia: es va realitzar un estudi pilot amb dos grups de 20 pacients. Al grup control es va aplicar US durant 5 minuts a 0.2 Hz, 3 sessions durant una setmana. Al grup experimental, un abordatge osteopàtic amb dues tècniques d’alta velocitat (HVLA), una a cuboides i l’altra a C2. Es va mesurar l’arc de mobilitat (goniòmetre), el dolor (escala EVA) i la propiocepció amb el test “Star Leg Propioception”.
Resultats: per la flexió plantar (FP), el grup experimental va augmentar un 75% mentre que el control un 40%. Per la flexió dorsal (FD), el grup control millorava un 35% mentre que l’experimental ho feia un 60%. Pel dolor, el grup control presentava un 45% de disminució, mentre que l’experimental un 80%. Per la propiocepció, els resultats no eren significatius.
Conclusions: el tractament osteopàtic (manipulació de C2 i cuboides) presenta millores significatives en totes les variables, exceptuant la propiocepció. - presented at
