Lower Back Manipulation
Nov 08, 2023
Hey there, it's Michael Brown from Cram Osteopaths in Glasgow! Today, I want to chat about one of the techniques we use in our practice: the lumbar spine manipulation technique. This one might give you a satisfying click or pop, and it's especially beneficial for those dealing with facet joint issues.
You may have seen us diagnose these conditions in our previous videos, but I thought it'd be great for you to experience it from a patient's perspective before visiting us. If you're dealing with one of these conditions, this technique could be just what you need.

No worries, it's a gentle process. You don't need a dramatic event with excessive clicking and popping. Our techniques here at Cram osteopaths are gentle and effective.
From this position, the osteopath determines...
