Mutifidus in Spinal Stability: Analysis of Inhibition with Muscle Activation Techniques
Journal Title: Journal of Novel Physiotherapy and Physical Rehabilitation - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Objectives: To (1) study the relationship between multifidus muscle activation and perception, (2) to explore the correlation between the failure of the multifidus and back pain, when (3) tested with the MAT technique and back pain questionnaire. Design: Three months prospective before/after quality improvement project. Participants: The participant sample consisted of 34 volunteers (30.5 + 8.2 years). Intervention: Lumbar disability was calculated using the Oswetry test, along with a neuropropioceptive multifidus response test and perceived exertion (Borg Scale).
