One physiotherapy session after lumbar fusion surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a single session of physiotherapy helps people recover after surgery for a slipped vertebra in the lower back (lumbar spondylolisthesis). You might join if you had a one-level fusion and meet a few simple health criteria.
