Abstract

Objectives : This study aimed to introduce a new sacral lumbar joint distraction technique in the prone position in Chuna manual therapy for effective lumbar distraction. Methods : The patient was placed in the prone position. Next, clinicians contacted the sacrum and L1, L2, L3, L4 and L5 spinal processes. Then they were pulled in the direction of the head and leg respectively while pressing down with 30% force to maintain the lumbar lordosis. This is a more effective and safer lumbar distraction technique according to the latest knowledge. Conclusions : This technique can be used for lumbar disc herniation in addition to relaxing the existing lumbar muscles, and is suggested to be used as a safe and effective Chuna manual therapy.
