Summary

The objective of the study is to measure and analyse the effect of a spinal mobilisation intervention on muscle tissue quality in people with lower back pain. The mobilisation intervention will be compared to a control with participants taking part in both conditions for a factorial, within-subject repeated measures study. The study will analyse lumbar muscle response to the manual intervention and analyse the potential influence of anthropometric measures of participants. The study hypothesises a decrease in lumbar stiffness post the intervention, compared to the control session.
