Effects of Osteopathy in Autonomic Nervous System: a Double-blind Randomized Controlled Trial
Abstract
The most important regulatory system in the body is the autonomic nervous system. There are several studies that evaluate the effect of techniques applied at the base of the skull on the autonomic nervous system. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the flying buttress technique on the autonomic nervous system.
Conditions: Healthy.
Primary outcome: Change from baseline in HRV at immediately post-intervention; Change from baseline in HRV at 7 min post-intervention.
Enrollment: 41 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 41 participants or records.
