Abstract:

Aim. The purpose of this paper is to identify the prospects for using osteopathy as a method of rehabilitation in people who have suffered repeated musculoskeletal injuries while exercising. Methods. The study involved 130 individuals who have suffered repeated musculoskeletal injuries while exercising. Patients underwent osteopathic treatment that included three sessions, one per week. Before and after treatment, the prospects for using osteopathy were assessed using the well-being, activity, mood questionnaire, and the quality of sleep and quality of life scales (Cantril ladder). Results. Osteopathic treatment in patients who have suffered repeated musculoskeletal injuries significantly increases the volume of kinematic chain movements and reduces the severity of local somatic complaints and pain intensity, resulting in increased activity, improved well-being and mood, normal sleep, and a significantly better quality of life. Conclusion. The results obtained allow for the recommendation of osteopathic treatment for patients who have suffered repeated musculoskeletal injuries.
