Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Manual approach of Hallux Valgus with global postural reeducation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Hallux Abducto Valgus is a frequent pathology with a prevalence of 30% in women and 13% in men. The tendency is to increase with age.

Usually, the elected treatment is surgery, as the conservative orthopedic methods are used at the early stages of the pathology. Global Postural Re-Education is a manual therapy treatment method through which we can treat lots of pathologies. Some investigations demonstrate Postural Re-Education is effective for the treatment of temporomandibular disorders, urinary incontinence, and spine disorders, but there is no scientific evidence that defends the improvement of the symptoms and correction of the angle of the Hallux Abducto Valgus using Postural Re-Education.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

A single-blind randomized controlled trial.
Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

DOUBLE

Investigators Outcome Assessors
An independent assessor blinded to the data collection was responsible for the allocation process. A list of the computer-generated number was employed to assign participants to experimental or control group

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Global postural reeducation

Patients completed 3 sessions of global postural reeducation for 3 weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Global postural reeducation

Intervention Type OTHER

It consisted of Global Postural Re-Education sessions divided into 3 sessions and performed with a frequency of 1 per week for 3 weeks. The sessions were performed individually, with an approximate duration of 40 minutes and all of them were assessed by the same physiotherapist.

Control group

Patients allocated to the control group did not receive any treatment.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
