FONDAMENTI SCIENTIFICI & CITAZIONI

Biomeccanica Clinica & Evidenze

This exercise protocol utilizes proven spinal mechanics: active core co-contraction (McGill stabilization), directional preference extension (McKenzie MDT), and non-compressive axial elongation to facilitate nutrient exchange in the avascular intervertebral disc matrix.
