Future Studies

Picture
Mechanical Infertility Systematic Study: a multi-center trial comparing two types of manual therapy interventions for females with mechanical infertility.

The next study to be done is a larger study of the current pilot study.  This one will be done over approximately 20 sites across the United States.  
Therapists are already trained in the techniques and the main outline of the study is complete.  The study will begin as soon as we have the preliminary data from the pilot study, have made necessary adjustments, and have review board approval.
