If you're primarily interested in reducing the number of
times patients flex past their neutral zone, and not
necessarily focused on providing *physical* support to
achieve that objective, then you may be interested in

Subject: strapping low backs
Date: 1/31/99 9:15 AM
Dear List
Is anyone aware of any current research that looks at the effectiveness
of strapping acute low backs. In the attempt to limit forward flexion,
and reduce the amount of times a day that person flex's into their
painful arc on forward flexion.
Kind regards
craig
