Immediate Effects of Lumbar Spine Manipulation on the Resting and Contraction Thickness of Transversus Abdominis in Asymptomatic Individuals.

By melissa | Published: October 21, 2010

These findings are in contrast to previous research where patients with LBP who met a CPR demonstrated an immediate decrease in resting thickness, and increase in contraction thickness in TrA following lumbar TJM.
