Short Arc Multifidus Study
February 17, 2009 updated by: Logan College of Chiropractic
Increase in Multifidus Size By Short Arc Banding on the ATM Machine as Measure by Diagnostic Ultrasound
Patients will be performing Logan short arc banding protocols to see the effect on multifidus size
Study Overview
Status
Unknown
Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
The subjects will initially be scanned by diagnostic ultrasound by to assess the cross sectional area of their lumbar multifidi.
Then they will perform 3 sets of 30 second periods of Logan Short Arc Banding on the ATM machine twice a week for 4 weeks and then they will be scanned again using diagnostic ultrasound to assess the effects of the rehabilitation exercise.
