Stretching of the back improves gait, mechanical sensitivity and connective tissue inflammation in a rodent model.
The role played by nonspecialized connective tissues in chronic non-specific low back pain is not well understood. In a recent ultrasound study, human subjects with chronic low back pain had altered connective tissue structure compared to human subjects without low back pain, suggesting the presence...
