Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) and the Effect on Equine Multifidi Asymmetry
Journal of Equine Veterinary Science, 2020 Asymmetry of the multifidi has been correlated with scoliosis and back pain in humans and has been investigated as a factor in equine back pain as well. The purpose of this study was to determine if FES would affect the symmetry of equine thoracolumbar multifidi when compared to controls.
