Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Placebo Comparator: The experimental group is defined by the sham osteopathic treatment (SOT)
Patients will receive 3 SOT of 30 minutes each for 2 weeks in a private practice by an experienced osteopath who will receive prior training to optimize the quality of the SOT.
The positions of the patient and the practitioner will be the same as in the AOT group
|
For SOT, the patient will lie on their stomach and the osteopath will use a wide two-handed grip on the patient's abdomen to deliberately mobilize it in an imprecise manner.
Next, a technique with no apparent therapeutic effects, the light touch, first described by Licciardone et al. [13] and proposed by others to perform simulated bone manipulations [14], will be applied to the sacrum
|
Experimental: The experimental group is defined by the active osteopathic treatment (AOT)
Patients will receive 3 AOT of 30 minutes each for 2 weeks in a private practice by an experienced osteopath who will receive prior training to optimize the quality of the AOT.
|
The AOT will first consist of the application of a visceral technique.
The patient will lie on their stomach and the osteopath will touch the patient's abdomen with a wide two-handed grip.
The action will consist of following the abdominal tissues in directions where tissue mobility is allowed and occurs without restriction, from the surface to the depth of the abdomen.
A change in the elasticity of the colon will then be perceived when the mobility restrictions of the tissues are dissipated.
The osteopath will then use a technique on the sacrum according toik-g the procedure described by Attali et al. [8] which consists in mobilizing the sacrum between the iliac bones.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
The effectiveness (response to treatment) at 1-month follow-up:
Time Frame: 1 month
|
It is measured by the IBS symptoms severity score (IBS-SSS) after osteopathic treatment.
The IBS-SSS is a validated measure to assess the severity of IBS symptoms, and allows monitoring of the response to treatment.
|
1 month

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Effectiveness at 3 months (response to treatment based on the IBS-SSS) and changes in total IBS-Quality Of Life (IBS-QOL) scores up to 3 months.
