Abstract

Excerpt: This case highlights the physical therapy examination, intervention, and outcomes of a 32-year-old, 26 weeks' gestation, complaining of low back pain. Information gathered from the history and administration of special tests played a vital role in the identification of lumbar instability as the underlying cause of the patient's symptoms. The plan of care included patient education, specific static and dynamic spinal stabilization exercises, and gentle graded mobilization.
