Low back pain (LBP) is an important medical and socioeconomic problem. Impaired
sensorimotor control has been suggested to be a likely mechanism underlying development …

Objective Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is multifactorial in nature, with recent research
highlighting the role of multifidus dysfunction in a subset of nonspecific CLBP. This review …

Chronic pain can be associated with movement abnormalities. The primary motor cortex
(M1) has an essential role in the formulation and execution of movement. A number of …

Somatic dysfunction is considered a central concept for the theory and practice of
osteopathy, but its relevance to the modern profession is questionable due to its unclear …
