Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to use diagnostic ultrasound to compare the thickness of soft tissues in the low back in a group of patients with chronic low back pain treated with massage to a control group of non-treated patients.
It is hypothesized that on average, soft tissue thickness in the lumbar region will change in the group receiving massage compared to the control group.
It is hypothesized that on average, soft tissue thickness in the lumbar region will change in the group receiving massage compared to the control group.
Detailed Description:
A specialized form of massage designed to reduce fascial restrictions will be compared to a no-treatment control group based on a change in thickness of the lumbodorsal fascia as determined by ultrasound imaging.
