Abstract:OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Chronic low back pain (cLBP) is associated with gait impairments. Gait may serve as an important biomarker for improvement following therapy interventions; however, gait has not been sufficiently studied in relationship to pain and function in cLBP.

Step time average, step time variab… Show more
