The Effects of Spinal Manipulation on Motor Unit Behavior [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2021 Over recent years, a growing body of research has highlighted the neural plastic effects of spinal manipulation on the central nervous system. Recently, it has been shown that spinal manipulation improved outcomes, such as maximum voluntary force and ...

Spinal manipulation in acute low back pain patients is associated with reduced motor-unit firing variability without altering bilateral coordination: a single-motor-unit EMG study of the lumbar multifidus [PDF]
Chiropractic & Manual TherapiesBackground The neurophysiology of high velocity, low amplitude spinal manipulation (HVLA-SM) is poorly understood. We have characterized motor unit (MU) discharge in acute low back pain (ALBP) patients after spinal manipulation and compared with pre ...

Impact of Spinal Manipulation on Cortical Drive to Upper and Lower Limb Muscles
Brain Sciences, 2016 This study investigates whether spinal manipulation leads to changes in motor control by measuring the recruitment pattern of motor units in both an upper and lower limb muscle and to see whether such changes may at least in part occur at the cortical ...
