Vulvodynia¿It Is Time to Accept a New Understanding from a Neurobiological Perspective
2021
Vulvodynia is one the most common causes of pain during sexual intercourse in premenopausal women. The burden of vulvodynia in a woman’s life can be devastating due to its consequences in the couple’s sexuality and intimacy, in activities of daily living, and psychological well-being. In recent decades, there has been considerable progress in the understanding of vulvar pain. The most significant change has been the differentiation of vulvar pain secondary to pathology or disease from vulvodynia. However, although it is currently proposed that vulvodynia should be considered as a primary chronic pain condition and, therefore, without an obvious identifiable cause, it is still believed that …
Short-term effects of kinesio taping in the treatment of latent and active upper trapezius trigger points : two prospective, randomized, sham-control…
2019
Este es el artículo que se ha publicado de forma definitiva en: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-51146-4 The presence of myofascial trigger points (MTrPs) is one of the most common causes of musculoskeletal problems and may lead to limited professional activity. Among the various treatment methods proposed for MTrPs, Kinesio Taping (KT) is a non-invasive, painless, and less time-consuming method with fewer side efects that has become widely used as a therapeutic tool in a variety of prevention and rehabilitation protocols. The aim of the study was to evaluate the immediate and short-term efcacy of the space correction KT technique in patients with latent or active MTrPs in the upp…
Short-term changes in median nerve neural tension after a suboccipital muscle inhibition technique in subjects with cervical whiplash: A randomised c…
2014
Abstract Objectives To assess the immediate effect of a suboccipital muscle inhibition (SMI) technique on: (a) neck pain, (b) elbow extension range of motion during the upper limb neurodynamic test of the median nerve (ULNT-1), and (c) grip strength in subjects with cervical whiplash; and determine the relationships between key variables. Design Randomised, single-blind, controlled clinical trial. Setting Faculty of Nursing, Physiotherapy and Podiatry, University of Seville, Spain. Participants Forty subjects {mean age 34 years [standard deviation (SD) 3.6]} with Grade I or II cervical whiplash and a positive response to the ULNT-1 were recruited and distributed into two study groups: inter…

In conclusion, it is key for physical therapists to acknowledge that an important subgroup of patients with OA develop hyperexcitability of the central nervous system and that CS plays a crucial role in the pain reported by these patients. Recent studies published in wellrespected journals support our arguments
A Central Nervous System Focused Treatment Program for People with Frozen Shoulder: A Feasibility Study
2022
Background: Frozen shoulder (FS) is a highly disabling pathology of poorly understood etiology, which is characterized by the presence of intense pain and progressive loss of range of motion (ROM). The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and clinical impact of a CNS-focused treatment program for people with FS. Methods: 10 subjects with primary FS received a 10-week CNS-focused intervention including sensory discrimination training and graded motor imagery techniques delivered as clinic sessions (60 min) and home therapy (30 min five times per week). Measurements were taken at baseline, after a 2-week “washout” period, after treatment, and at three months follow-up.…
Impact of hip abductor and adductor strength on dynamic balance and ankle biomechanics in young elite female Basketball players
2022
This study aimed to evaluate, in an isolated and relative manner, hip abductor (ABD) and adductor (AD) strength and to study the extent to which these factors are related to balance and ankle dorsiflexion mobility in young elite female basketball players. Sixty trainee-level elite female basketball players (13–18 years old), who voluntarily agreed to participate in the study, were divided into three subgroups based on competition age divisions (U14, U16, U18). Isometric hip ABD and AD strength in each leg was evaluated using the ForceFrame Strength Testing System, also calculating the strength ratio and imbalance between legs. Y Balance Test (YBT) and ankle dorsiflexion mobility were also a…
Efectos de un programa de ejercicio combinado de impacto, fuerza y resistencia en la prevención de osteoporosis de mujeres posmenopáusicas
2019
Resumen Antecedentes y objetivo Las mujeres posmenopausicas son una poblacion susceptible de desarrollar osteoporosis. El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar los efectos de un programa de ejercicio fisico combinado de impacto, fuerza y resistencia en mujeres posmenopausicas. Materiales y metodos Estudio de intervencion prospectivo, con un grupo que incluyo a mujeres posmenopausicas que no tenian pautado tratamiento farmacologico para la prevencion de osteoporosis. Se realizo una intervencion de 2 anos de duracion, con 2 sesiones de entrenamiento por semana, basada en ejercicios de impacto, fuerza y resistencia progresiva. Se estimo el indice T score en femur y columna para determin…
Effects of Three Interventions Combining Impact or Walking at Intense Pace Training, with or without Calcium and Vitamin Supplements, to Manage Postm…
2022
The purpose was to assess the effects of three interventions on bone mineral density (BMD) to prevent the onset or progression of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Specifically, thirty-nine postmenopausal women, diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis, implemented either high-impact training (G1), the same training + calcium and vitamin D intake (G2), or walked at an intense pace + calcium and vitamin D (G3). Baseline change (BC) in BMD was estimated using the femoral neck and lumbar spine T-scores. Participants were classified as having suffered fractures and/or falls before (24-month) and during the 2-year intervention. The participants—aged 61.8 years—were allocated int…
Atlanto-Occipital Joint Manipulation and Suboccipital Inhibition Technique in the Osteopathic Treatment of Patients with Tension-Type Headache.
2012
Introducción. La cefalea tensional tiene una elevada prevalencia, con repercusión en el ámbito laboral y social de los sujetos que la padecen. Objetivo. Evaluar la eficacia de dos tratamientos con terapia manual en pacientes con cefalea tensional. Material y métodos. Se ha llevado a cabo un estudio a doble ciego, aleatorio, con 76 pacientes (81,6% mujeres) diagnosticados de cefalea tensional, con edad media de 39,96 años (DT=10,93), distribuidos en 4 grupos (tres de tratamiento y un grupo de control placebo). Los tratamientos incluyen terapia manual osteopática con: 1) técnica de inhibición de suboccipitales; 2) técnica manipulativa de occipucio-atlas-axis; 3) la combinación de ambas. Se ap…
Abordajes Terapéuticos No Farmacológicos para el Tratamiento de la Cefalea Tensional. Revisión bibliográfica.

Introducción: La cefalea tensional (CT) es la más prevalente dentro de las cefaleas primarias. Representa un impacto económico alto y una repercusión importante en la vida de los pacientes que las sufren y en el sistema público de salud. Objetivos: Conocer el número y fechas de publicación de los estudios realizados en el tratamiento de la CT. Material y Métodos: Se procedió a una búsqueda bibliográfica en PubMed recurriendo al uso de las palabras clave contenidas en dichas publicaciones referidas específicamente a CT y se realizó una búsqueda incluyendo los términos tension-type headache y manual therapy, manipulation therapy, physical therapy, vertebral manipulation, cervical manipulation…
