On today's episode, we have more research, a great study that is all around the multifidus, a muscle that I like to discuss. A critical muscle in the lower lumbar spine in terms of stability. And this study talks about the multifidus in context of how multifidus quality may impact the results of conservative management for people with low back pain and or radicular pain. So great study, lots of take home messages. We're going to dive into it and I will lay on some context as well.
