Increased Sliding of Transverse Abdominis during Contraction after Myofascial Release in Patients with Chronic Low Back Pain
Recent evidence suggested the significance of integrity of the tension balance of the muscle-fascia corset system in spinal stability, particularly the posterior musculofascial junction which is adjacent to dorsal located paraspinal muscles joining each other at lateral raphe (LR). The purpose of this study was to compare the contraction of the transversus abdominis at both anterior and posterior musculofascial muscle-fascia junctions in patients with low back pain and asymptomatic participants before and immediately after a sustained manual pressure to LR … ABSTRACT
