Abstract:

Subject: this study aims at finding out, if it is possible to exert a positive influence on congestive menstrual disorders and premenstrual syndrome by using osteopathic treatment and thus improve quality of life for the women concerned. Study design: comparative, clinical study plus statistical evaluation. Method: 10 patients of the test group are given osteopathic treatment in their premenstrual phase for a period of 4 menstrual cycles. Before the first and after the last treatment patients fill in a questionnaire. The results of the test group are compared with a control group who also fills in two questionnaires at an interval of 4 cycles. Results: the results of the study are statistically evaluated and represented in diagrams. On the basis of this evaluation we can clearly see a statistical tendency towards iomprovement for both congestive menstrual pain and premenstrual syndrome. However, due to the low number of participants the results cannot be called statistically significant. Conclusion: on the basis of the statistical results it has been proven beyond any doubt that it is possible to influence hormonal dysbalances of women by giving them osteopathic treatment. Function of organs in the lesser pelvis is improved by a harmonisation on the structural, cranial and visceral levels and congestive pain symptomatology is considerably reduced.
