DISORDERS
The obtained results of the stabilometric parameters presented in this study do not allow us to conclude whether there is any credible impact of a single MFR procedure on postural stability in CLBP patients. Based on theoretical assumptions about the possible impact of MFR interventions on postural stability presented in the Introduction section of this manuscript [According to some authors, Postural stability disorders in patients with LBP is caused by alteration of reflexive muscle activation in the trunk and lower limbs, which are the effector organs of the posture control system [To our knowledge, an analysis of immediate changes in postural stability following one isolated MFR intervention has not been presented, which indicated the validity of our objective assessment of these parameters using a posturography test. The literature reports available so far in this area present only an assessment of postural stability in people with LBP using simple functional tests such as the Y-balance test, used to evaluate dynamic stability while standing on one foot, [The results of this study did not confirm the assumptions presented in the research hypotheses. Nevertheless, some of the results obtained may have clinical application for practitioners working with patients with CLBP. Due to the fact that in this study a single MFR session did not deteriorate postural stability, it seems that this type of local intervention can be used without fear of intensifying the postural stability disorders associated with CLBP.
