[edit] Translation

If anyone could improve this page by bringing information from the German version, that'd be great. Rares 04:50, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Treatment

I think the passage should be changed to include the views that manipulative therapy is no better than a sham treatment, as outline in many studies (please see references in the following: Bogduk N. Management of chronic low back pain. Med J Aust 2004; 180:79-83.) Instead, massage therapy as well as mobilisation seem to work much better.


[edit] Definition

Good page but why are there two different definitions in a row? Slightly confusing. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.53.51.110 (talk) 19:09, 13 January 2007 (UTC).
