Ninth Dorsal Osteopathic Visceral Manipulation D9

Ninth Dorsal Osteopathic Visceral Manipulation D9 Affects Pancreas Blood Levels

The aims of this study is to verify that the vertebral manipulation of dorsal level D9 influences the pancreas biochemical and endocrinology blood values.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Manipulation; Osteopathia
• Intervention / Treatment: Other: Manipulation

Detailed Description

A longitudinal experimental study was conducted in which the osteopathic thrust maneuver was applied. In this research, 87 healthy subjects participated, of which 56.3% (n = 49) are men and 43.7% (n = 38) are women aged 19-29 who study at the Catholic University of Murcia.The blood analytical values of insulin and glycemia have been measured in 4 different times: at baseline, after 2,5 and 10 minutes of the technique application with the purpose to verify any possible change.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Basal insulin laboratory value change	The normal values of basal insulin measured with the imunoanalysis method are ˂ at 25.0 mU / l. If these values are exceeded, the effect of the manipulation in the study is verified	10 minutes
Basal glycemia laboratory value change	The normal values of basal glycemia measured with the enzymatic method vary between 60 - 105 mg / dl. The change of these values according to the reference laboratory has been the basis of the study.	10 minutes
