Visceral responses to spinal manipulation

Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 2012
While spinal manipulation is widely seen as a reasonable treatment option for biomechanical disorders of the spine, such as neck pain and low back pain, the use of spinal manipulation to treat non-musculoskeletal complaints remains controversial. This controversy is due in part to the perception that there is no robust neurobiological rationale to ...

Spinal Manipulation for Back Pain

Hospital Practice, 1989
It appears that the lack of good scientific research regarding spinal manipulation has fueled skepticism and deterred many physicians from learning its indications, contraindications, and techniques. Overall, there is sufficient evidence supporting spinal manipulative therapy in the short-term management of back pain.

Short-term effects of spinal thrust joint manipulation on postural sway in patients with chronic mechanical neck pain: a randomized controlled trial

Disability and Rehabilitation, 2020
Purpose Our aim was to compare the efficacy of spinal manipulation of the upper cervical spine (C1-C2) on postural sway in patients with chronic mechanical neck pain with the application of a combination of cervical (C3-C4), cervicothoracic (C7-T1) and ...

Neurophysiological effects of spinal manipulation

The Spine Journal, 2002
Despite clinical evidence for the benefits of spinal manipulation and the apparent wide usage of it, the biological mechanisms underlying the effects of spinal manipulation are not known. Although this does not negate the clinical effects of spinal manipulation, it hinders acceptance by the wider scientific and health-care communities and hinders ...

Spinal Reflex Attenuation Associated With Spinal Manipulation

Spine, 2000
This study evaluated the effect of lumbosacral spinal manipulation with thrust and spinal mobilization without thrust on the excitability of the alpha motoneuronal pool in human subjects without low back pain.To investigate the effect of high velocity, low amplitude thrust, or mobilization without thrust on the excitability of the alpha motoneuron pool,

Epidemiology: Spinal manipulation utilization

Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology, 2012
The objectives of this article are to (1) describe spinal manipulation use by time, place, and person, and (2) identify predictors of the use of spinal manipulation. We conducted a systematic review of the English-language literature published from January 1, 1980 through June 30, 2011. Of 822 citations identified, 213 were deemed potentially relevant;

The Role of Spinal Manipulation in the Treatment of Low Back Pain.

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2017
Although approximately 200 treatment options are available to treat low back pain,1 no single treatment is clearly superior. Furthermore, the etiology of back pain is often unclear, possibly contributing to treatment strategies for low back pain often ...

Biomechanics of spinal manipulative therapy

The Spine Journal, 2001
Modern scientific investigations into spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) began in 1975. Conditions often treated include acute and chronic low back pain, radicular pain, neck pain, and some forms of headache. The field of spinal manipulation has often been treated by the literature, incorrectly, as being homogeneous. Much of the confusion regarding this
