Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of lumbar manipulation will improve function, decrease pain, and recurrence in adolescents with low back pain. The secondary aim of this study is to determine if a modification of a clinical prediction rule by Flynn will be effective in identifying adolescent patients with low back pain who would benefit from lumbar manipulation.

Each activity is scored on a numerical rating scale from 0 (unable to perform) to 10 (able to perform at pre-injury level).
