Effects of Hip Bump Manipulation Versus Sham Treatment in Healthy Adults 60

Recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT07025434 is an interventional study for Assessment of Hip Strength, Range of Motion, EMG Activation, and Landing Mechanics in Healthy Subjects, Healthy Adult Subjects that is recruiting. It started on June 20, 2025 with plans to enroll 60 participants. Led by Dominican University New York, it is expected to complete by May 1, 2026. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on October 14, 2025.
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to objectively assess the effects of hip bump manipulation (HBM) on a healthy population aged 18-45 years. We hypothesize that the HBM will improve hip internal rotation passive range of motion, improve the strength of the hip external rotators, decrease compensatory motions in hip flexion during active range of motion, and improve bipodal landing mechanics.

Human participants will be an...

ExperimentalGroup A: Intervention
Hip Bump Manipulation (UFIR)
Hip Bump Manipulation
This technique is a high velocity low amplitude thrust (HVLAT) directly posterior to the greater trochanter which theorizes the quick stretch of the external rotator muscles and may improve a malpositioned femoral head within the acetabulum.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Hip External Rotation Strength
Measured with ActivForce Handheld Dynamometry. 3 trials for an average Mean Voluntary Isometric Contraction
"From pre-intervention to post-intervention within a single session lasting approximately 20 minutes."
Hip Internal Rotation Range of Motion
Hip Internal rotation measured in a seat position 90/90 position. Measured with IPhone Digital Goniometry. 3 trials with a calculated average
"From pre-intervention to post-intervention within a single session lasting approximately 20 minutes."
Hip EMG Muscle Activation
Delsys Trigno Wireless System will be used to monitor changes in muscle activation between the Tensor Fascia Latae, Gluteus Medius, and Gluteus Maximus. During seated isometric external rotation contraction and bipodal landing. EMG will be retrieved on the 2nd attempt out of 3 trials.
"From pre-intervention to post-intervention within a single session lasting approximately 20 minutes."
Bipodal Landing
Kinvent K-Delta Force Plates used to measure changes in bipodal landing mechanics including force distribution, time to stabilization, etc. 3 trials will be conducted to present average values
"From pre-intervention to post-intervention within a single session lasting approximately 20 minutes."
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Hip Deviation with Active Assisted Hip Flexion Range of Motion
Deviation resulting in excessive abduction and external rotation during knee to chest active assisted range of motion. Video recording before and after to observe changes pre and post intervention.
"From pre-intervention to post-intervention within a single session lasting approximately 20 minutes."
Hip External Rotation Range of Motion
Measured to compare the change in External and Internal Rotation range of motion relationship. Measure with iPhone Digital Goniometry. 3 trials will be conducted to present an average value of ROM
"From pre-intervention to post-intervention within a single session lasting approximately 20 minutes."
