研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine if a lower back treatment would change the knee pain intensity and the level of functional activities as well as the muscle activities in people with anterior knee pain. The investigators hypothesized that the lower back treatment may change the hip and knee muscle activities as well as reduce the knee pain intensity and improve the functional activities in people with anterior knee pain.
