Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the instant effects of direct vertabral manipulation and indirect vertebral manipulation techniques on muscles mechanical properties, pressure-pain threshold and joint range of motion in individuals with chronic low back pain. Another purpose of this study was to compare the effects of both treatment methods on the parameters studied.

Conditions

  • Chronic Low-back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Group 1 - Maitland's Posterior-Anterior Central Vertebral Manipulation

For the posterior-anterior unilateral vertebral manipulation, the therapist positioned both thumbs on top of each other on the spinous process of the vertebra and applied an average of 4 kg of discrete pressure

OTHER

Group 2- Side-Lying Lumbar Spinal Manipulation

The therapist stood in front of the patient, who was instructed to lie on their side with the painful side facing upward.the therapist utilized their arm and body to apply the manipulation. A high-speed, low-amplitude thrust force was applied in opposite directions: anteriorly to the pelvis and posteriorly to the shoulder.
