Sagittal plane blockage, specifically at the first metatarsophalangeal joints but also at the ankle joints, has been implicated as playing a role in the process of chronic mechanical low back pain. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a link could be found between chronic mechanical low back pain and sagittal plane blockage of the feet and ankles.115 penChiropracticBackacheChiropractic--Dissertations, AcademicThesishttps://doi.org/10.51415/10321/207
