Interventions

PROCEDURE

Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT)+ Multidisciplinary Intensive Rehabilitation Treatment (MIRT)

OMT: 4-week manual therapeutic program with a weekly session of osteopathic examination and manipulation of somatic disfunctions in ambulatory setting. MIRT: 4-week physical therapy with 4 daily sessions (1 hour each), 5days/week, in a hospital setting. The first session comprises cardiovascular warm-up activities, relaxation, muscle stretching, exercises to improve the range of motion of different joints, exercises to improve the functionality of the abdominal muscles, and postural changes in the supine position. The second session includes exercises to improve balance and gait using stabilometric platform,treadmill plus, crossover and cycloergometer. The third and fourth pertain occupational and speech therapy.

PROCEDURE

Sham Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (SOMT)+ Multidisciplinary Intensive Rehabilitation Treatment (MIRT)
