Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Spinal Manipulation
Subjects with subacute low back pain. Subjects will receive 6 treatments of Spinal Manipulation (SM) over 2 consecutive weeks
Spinal Manipulation
The subject will be asked to lay down and bend in a specific way. The clinician will apply force to certain areas to manipulate the spine.
Placebo Spinal Manipulation
Subjects with subacute low back pain. Subjects will be asked to visit the clinic for 6 times. The clinician will go through SM motions but the spine will not actually be manipulated.
Placebo Spinal Manipulation
The subject will be asked to lay down and bend in a specific way. The clinician will apply force to certain areas to simulate manipulating the spine.
