Brief Summary

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

Athletic osteitis pubis is a pathologic entity that can cause functional impairment. Scientific evidence have noticed that athletes experiment pain and a decrease on strength. Moreover, this symptomathology can affect daily life and functionality. There is no scientific evidence about the influence of manual therapy (MT) as a single treatment to improve this condition. The investigators decided to conduct a randomized controlled trial to compare the effects of a MT technique with placebo technique.
