How it works
Spinal manipulation may reduce central sensitisation, improve segmental motion, and reduce paraspinal muscle hyperactivity.
Most benefit is in the short term (4–6 weeks). Not superior to other active therapies long-term. Ensure treatment is from a qualified practitioner.
Cochrane and multiple systematic reviews show manual therapy produces clinically meaningful short-term pain and disability reduction for non-specific low back pain.

“Some improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.”
