Spinal manipulations in acute non-specific LBP

Hello,

I’m looking to start a conversation regarding the use and efficacy of spinal manipulations. Currently in PT school learning manipulations, looking for a new perspective.

Here are just a few articles to start the conversation

Before I comment, I’ll ask what are you learning in school?

Also - what is your assessment of the first paper you linked? Strengths? Weaknesses?
