Abstract:

Purpose: To Evaluate the Effect of Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) and key biomechanics contributing to lacrosse shot power and accuracy. Methods and Study Design: Thirteen from from the Salt Lake Storm, a Men's Senior-A Box Lacrosse Team were evaluated for lacrosse shot speed and accuracy. Speed was evaluated by giving the players 2 attempts at a high-velocity lacrosse shot and the highest miles per hour (MPH) was recorded. Accuracy was evaluated by shooting 10 yards from the goal and recording the proportion of the 5 shots that hit the 20.5' by 20.5' target. Results: A total of 13 players participated in the study. All participants were adults who identified as male. A paired, 2- tailed t-test resulted in a mean accuracy difference of a marginal improvement of 0.08 (P = 0.829, 95% CI 20.68 to 0.84) and a slight mean speed increase of 0.23 MPH (P = 0.804, 95% CI 21.75 to 2.21). Conclusions: Based on the results of the study, OMT focused on the lumbar and pelvis regions has failed to demonstrate a statistically significant benefit on shot accuracy or throwing power in a Men's Senior-A Box Lacrosse Team in the Box Lacrosse League.
