Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Osteopathic Manipulative Lymphatic Pump Treatment and Its Relationship To Anandamide levels

    The Investigators will be studying the effects of Osteopathic Manipulative Lymphatic Pump Treatment on levels of anandamide in Saliva. A qualitative scale will also be used to measure the canabinomimetic effects of osteopathic treatment.

    60 minutes

Study Arms (1)

Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine

EXPERIMENTAL

The thoracic inlet release, The Miller Thoracic Pump, Pedal Pump will be performed. These techniques are gentle and would be rhythmic in motion.

Other: Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine

Interventions

The procedures are picked for their generalized effect on the lymphatic system based on osteopathic literature and research. Our goal is to mobilize the lymphatic fluid to induce an increase of endocannabinoids. These procedures are similar to mechanical motion seen in exercise in regards to lymphatic movement. Each technique will be performed for a total of four minutes each
