DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. How Manual Therapy Works and Why it Matters The Integration of Manual Therapy into Sports Medicine Thomas R. Denninger, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT 2015 Steadman Hawkins Clinic of the Carolinas Sports Medicine Symposium June 5 th -6 th, 2015
2
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. ➔ Participants will acquire knowledge of the: o Theoretical basis of manual therapy techniques based off available scientific literature o Centering on the proposed model by Bialosky. ➔ Participants will demonstrate application of manual therapy for common sports medicine injuries at the: o Shoulder o Foot/ankle Based upon recent systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials comparing treatment including manual therapy vs. standard of care. Course Objectives

DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. “Manual therapy techniques consist of a broad group of passive interventions in which clinicians use their hands to administer skilled movements designed to modulate pain; increase range of motion, reduce or eliminate soft tissue swelling; inflammation; or restriction; induce relaxation; improve contractile and non-contractile tissue extensibility; and improve pulmonary function. These interventions involve a variety of techniques, such as the application of graded forces.” APTA/AAOMPT Definition

DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. How Manual Therapy Is Often Assumed to Work Manual Therapy Mechanical EffectClinical Benefit
9
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. ➔ Biomechanical Evidence Summary o Joint biomechanics are variable especially in pathologic joints o Clinical benefits often not consistent with biomechanical theory o Studies demonstrate biomechanical changes are Short lasting Non-specific Do not change alignment or position However

12
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. “When the scientific literature is considered, attributing successful (manual therapy) outcomes solely to the identification and correction of biomechanical faults makes as much sense as crediting a beard for winning a hockey playoff”

DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. Something is Missing Manual Therapy Clinical Benefit Mechanical Effect
14
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. The Black Box
15
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. It’s Much Messier
16
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. Let’s Simplify a Bit Non-Specific Effects
17
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. ➔ Peripheral Nervous System ➔ Central Nervous System ➔ Supra-Spinal ➔ Psychosocial Define Non-Specific Effects
18
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. ➔ Manual Therapy has been demonstrated to: o Significantly reduce pain biomarkers o Increase in PEA Peripheral Nervous System
19
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. ➔ Neuromuscular Responses o Motorneuron Pooling o Afferent Discharge o Muscle Activity ➔ Hypoalgesia o Temporal Summation o Selective blocking of neurotransmitters Central Nervous System

Supraspinal and Psychosocial Domains
28
DON’T JUST RECOVER. CONQUER. Peripheral Nervous System -Changes in local pain biomarkers Central Nervous System -Muscle relaxation and excitation -Ascending Pain Inhibition Supra-Spinal Pathways -Endogenous Opioids -Changes in neural processing of nociceptive information -Autonomic Changes Psychosocial Components -Placebo -Changes in fear
