To investigate the effect of Osteopathic Cranial Manipulative Medicine on spatial learning and memory in naturally aged rat model of AD, aged rats were grouped into OCMM-treated and untreated groups and compared. This video shows an OCMM-treated rat. The movement starts at 0:13. Four quadrants and platform location (circle at northwest quadrant) are marked in the video.
