Effects of Grade III Traction-mobilization in End-range Joint Position in Patients With Hip Osteoarthritis...
OsteoarthritisHipLower limb osteoarthritis is a major health problem in the westernized countries. The current gold standard treatment is joint replacement. However clinical guidelines recommend physical therapy as first option for these patients. Manual therapy has reported good reports in function, range of motion and pain in patients with hip osteoarthritis. The main aim of this study is to test the effects of a manual therapy protocol based on manual traction mobilization of the hip joint in an end range position and compare them with the effects achieve with the same protocol based on manual traction mobilization of the hip joint in a resting position. The investigators will use the caudal traction mobilization described by Kaltenborn. The study will test the effects of both treatments in passive range of motion, function and pain after three weeks of treatment, three weeks after finalizing the treatment and six weeks after.

Effects of Foot Center of Pressure Manipulation on Hip Osteoarthritis Patients During Gait
Hip OsteoarthritisThe purpose of this study is to: Analyze the short-term effects of external center of pressure manipulation of the foot in idiopathic hip osteoarthritis patients during gait on: Gait parameters (spatiotemporal, kinematic, and kinetic) Muscle activation patterns of the lower limbs and back Analyze the long-term effects (during the period of one year) of external center of pressure manipulation of the foot in idiopathic hip osteoarthritis patients during gait on: Gait parameters (spatiotemporal, kinematic, and kinetic) Motor learning and muscle activation patterns Energy consumption Pain, physical function, and quality of life The hypotheses of the study, in reference to the aforementioned study objectives are: Changes in foot center of pressure will have an immediate effect on gait parameters and muscle activation patterns of the lower limbs and back. Long-term manipulation of foot center of pressure, as a result of a year-long rehabilitation program using the AposTherapy Biomechanical System, will result in improvement in gait parameters, changes in muscle activation patterns as a result of new motor learning, improvement in energy consumption, decrease in pain, improvement in physical function, and improvement in quality of life.
