Summary

Athletic osteitis pubis is a high prevalent pathology among athletes, especially in those who make quick change of direction of the movement, like runners or footballers. Despite the fact that there is evidence about conservative treatments, there is a lack of evidence about manual therapy (MT) techniques applied in isolation and its consequences in pain and range of movement. The investigators decided to conduct a randomized controlled trial to compare the effects of a MT technique with placebo technique.
