  • Title: Spinal manipulation: does it work?
    Author: Curtis P.
    Journal: Occup Med; 1988; 3(1):31-44. PubMed ID: 2963390.
    Abstract:
    This article reviews the value of spinal manipulation in treating low back pain. Although there is still little evidence by which to judge this form of treatment, there is speculation that manipulation exerts a powerful placebo effect in producing a specific but short-term benefit.
