SNAG treatment for low back pain from different positions
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares how well a technique called SNAG (a gentle manual therapy) works for chronic low back pain when done from different starting positions. It may help if you have had back pain for at least 6 weeks and your main movement difficulty is bending forward.
