Iliotibial band elasticity evaluated with shear wave elastography after osteopathic recoil technique on the fibula
Résumé
Elastography offers new perspectives for understanding manual therapies effects.It allowed Luomalaet al. to visualize changes in deep fascia after manual technique, but results were only qualitative. Other authors quantified the effect of hip position on iliotibial band (ITB) elasticity using thistechnology. The objective of this study is to check whether changes in local elasticity of ITB after osteopathic recoil technique (ORT) on the fibula can be measured with shear wave elastography
