Learn about:

The McKenzie Method, a classification-based treatment for patients with low back pain. The McKenzie Method evaluation is received by using repeated movements and sustained positions. From this, patients with different low back symptoms are classified into three subgroups: postural syndrome, dysfunctional syndrome, and derangement syndrome. The choice of exercises used with the McKenzie method is based upon the direction (flexion, extension or lateral shift of spine), with the aim of centralizing and eliminating pain in the legs and lumbar spine.

Mulligan Therapy, a manual therapy technique developed by Brian Mulligan. This simple, yet effective approach addresses musculoskeletal disorders with pain-free manual joint "re-positioning" techniques for restoring function and minimizing pain.
