Finger-Floor Distance Is Not a Valid Parameter for the Assessment of Lumbar Mobility

Finger-Floor Distance Is Not a Valid Parameter for the Assessment of Lumbar Mobility

Low back pain (LBP) could be associated with a reduced lumbar mobility. For the evaluation of lumbar flexibility, parameters such as finger-floor distance (FFD) are historically established. However, the extent of the correlation of FFD to lumbar flexibility or other involved joint kinematics such a...
