Stopped: no more possibly to include subjects (subject unavailability)
The aim is to study the effectiveness of a common osteopathic intervention in professional handball players on diaphragmatic contractility and its correlations with posture. This study has never been done in healthy subjects. It is a scientific process of objectification of an osteopathic technique commonly performed in this population. The main objective is to assess diaphragmatic contractibility using ultrasound after abdominal osteopathic intervention (OMT).
