Summary

The present study will consist of evaluating the effect of applying an exercise protocol on a vibratory platform in order to provoke immediate influences in the affected systems and in the quality of life of the patients with patella-femoral pain.

Conditions

  • Patello Femoral Syndrome

Interventions

DEVICE

Whole body vibration

In this study an axial vibratory platform will be used: POWER-PLATE pro 5 AIRdaptive TM HP®. This device is reviewed annually by the technical unit of the company itself and complies with the international regulations that regulate the Medical Devices \[Devices Directive (MDD) 93/42 / EEC (ISO 2631. 2011, Powerplate.com, 2013)\]. The vibration will be administered with 2 mm of amplitude and 40 Hz of frequency.

OTHER

EXERCISE group

The program will consist of a routine of 18 exercises that will be executed where the greatest neuromuscular recruitment is sought. Most exercises are dynamic and isotonic. It is structured following the scheduled phases (ACSM, 2013) of warm-up, development and return to calm or stretching. The total duration of the program is 22 minutes, keeping the general lines of high-intensity aerobic interval training, which establishes a rest period at least equal to that of work. The treatment protocol will consist of 11 sessions applied in 4 weeks under an intervention regime of weeks 3 sessions, with a duration per session of 22 minutes, which will be supervised by a physiotherapist with more than 15 years of clinical experience.
