An investigation of an anatomical and neurophysiological rationale for the use of joint mobilization in the treatment of low back pain

This project has explored the anatomical and neurophysiological effects of mobilization in the treatment of lumbar condtions. The study also discussed the long, often controversial history of the use of mobilization. The socioeconomic impact of low back pain in the industrialized society was reviewed. The interrelationship between lumbar anatomy, neurclogy, hydrostatic fluid dynamics, and lumbar biomechanics was investigated. In addition, the prevention of low back pain and injury in normal activities of daily living was discussed with suggestions being made for the safest way to perform these activities.
