Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Visual analogical scale

    Pain was measured using a visual analogical scale (VAS). The VAS consists of a 10-cm line, with the left extremity representing (absence of pain) and the right extremity indicating (the worse pain devisable). Participants were asked to indicate in the scale their current level of pain being higher values related with more intense pain

    Change from baseline to 4 weeks and 6 months of follow up.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Oswestry Disability Index

    Change from baseline to 4 weeks and 6 months of follow up.

  • Range of Motion

    Change from baseline to 4 weeks and 6 months of follow up.

Study Arms (2)

Spinal manipulation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Spinal manipulation to the spine will be applied to participants enrolled in this group.

Other: Spinal Manipulation

Sham manipulation

SHAM COMPARATOR

Sham technique wich mimic the intervention manipulation with less force and different body location will be applied.

Other: Sham manipulation

Interventions

Spinal manipulation based on orthopaedic manual therapy approach

Spinal manipulation

Patients will receive simulated spinal manipulation without force application

Sham manipulation
