Summary

The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate whether MyotonPRO can quantify the changes in the muscle characteristics of the erector spinae in different postures and after myofascial relaxation, and to test the validity of the muscle tone tester.

Conditions

  • Low Back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

manual erector spinae myofascial realease

The subjects first positioned the third, fourth, and fifth lumbar vertebrae in a relaxed lying position, about 2-3 cm away from the left and right sides (depending on the size of the subjects' muscles). And then in six postures (prone, prone with leg raise, sit straight , slouch sitting, stand straight and slouch standing), MyotonPRO was used to test the above-mentioned 8 points in these position. Subjects will undergo a pre-mobilization assessment to see if MyotonPRO can detect changes in the erector spinae muscle properties, including changes in muscle tone, stiffness, and elasticity, under different test positions. After physical therapist manual mobilization, MyotonPRO's erector spinae muscle biomechanical data was collected again for data analysis to determine MyotonPRO could objectively quantify changes in erector spinae biomechanical characteristics.

OTHER

self-myofascial release technique

The subjects first positioned the third, fourth, and fifth lumbar vertebrae in a relaxed lying position, about 2-3 cm away from the left and right sides (depending on the size of the subjects' muscles). And then in six postures (prone, prone with leg raise, sit straight , slouch sitting, stand straight and slouch standing), MyotonPRO was used to test the above-mentioned 8 points in these position. Subjects will undergo a pre-mobilization assessment to see if MyotonPRO can detect changes in the erector spinae muscle properties, including changes in muscle tone, stiffness, and elasticity, under different test positions. After self mobilization by roller, MyotonPRO's erector spinae muscle biomechanical data was collected again for data analysis to determine MyotonPRO could objectively quantify changes in erector spinae biomechanical characteristics.
