Introduction: The aims of this research was to measure the effects of manipulation by remarking the type of dysfunction and the orientation of the correcting maneuver in patients with iliosacral joint dysfunctions. Methods: Sixty women with ant innominate or post innominate dysfunctions were gathered for the research and divided into two groups, treatment group received a session of manipulation and the control group randomly (N=30). The range of flexion and extension of the lumbar, internal and external rotations of the hip, VAS, active SLR and pressure pain threshold were evaluated before, immediately and 24 hours after manipulation. Results: As per the results of this study, in treatment group, manipulation had helped to relieve the level of pain and decreased the mean score of ASLR and its effects remained up to 24 hours (p<0.05) and also increased immediately the ROM of the hip internal and external rotations and the lumbar flexion and extension (p<0.05) but in control group we didn't see any significant difference (p>0.05). We didn't see any significant difference at PPT before, immediately after and 24 hours after manipulation in patients in both groups (p>0.05). Conclusion: Applying manipulation regarding the kind of dysfunction may be reducing patient's symptoms. Level of evidence: Ib. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
