THORACIC SPINE MANIPULATIONLOW-BACK-PAINBackground: Although exercise is the mainstay of treatment for neck pain (NP), uncertainty remains over optimal decision-making concerning who may benefit most from such,
2. Secondly, the stretching and positioning of the spine that occur during yoga exercises is believed to decrease the gradual disc degeneration that occurs with age because it’s suggested that the constant tension and compression of the disc during stretching exercises stimulates the synthesis of gr...

“a” means repeating the above process of “2” and “e”, respectively. In addition, the monitoring of thoracic exercises is plotted out in Fig.4g. These tests show the vector stretch sensor able to serve as a wearable device for posture monitoring, physical rehabilitation training, and so...
Neurodynamic sciatic slider technique was performed by alternating hip flexion, knee flexion, and ankle dorsiflexion with hip extension, knee extension, and ankle plantarflexion while the subject’s cervical and thoracic spine were maintained in flexion. Movements were performed for 180 seconds on their...
Stretching at narrower hand spacings focuses on the spinal and para-spinal muscles of the lower cervical spine and the entire thoracic spine. Intermediate spacings focus on muscles lying between the foregoing positions along the posterior of the body, including the trapezius and the scapular muscles,...
