"Hi my name is Dr. Steve Minors of Rehab Effects here in Austin, Texas and today we are going to consider the applications of the McKenzie technique with the lumbar spine. Here we have our model and the model here let's say that she has low back pain and that it radiates down through the buttock through the leg and let's say her toes are numb or let's say the outside of her foot hurts a little bit, feels crampy, or it feels numb also. By applying one of the various techniques that Robin McKenzie invented we are trying to get the patient to where the numbness and pain slowly leave the foot and move up the leg maybe into the calf and continues to move into the thigh and into the buttock and then to the lower back and eventually for it to completely disappate. The process by which the pain actually goes into the foot is referred to as peripheralization and we are trying to accomplish centralization. We are trying to centralize the pain. One of the techniques that we would try to use is what we would call a press up. Let the patient put her hands near her shoulders like she was going to do a push up and she is going to raise her head and her chest off the table but leaving her hips and her buttocks down on the table. You can come on up as far as you can and ideally you want to try to straighten the elbows out and come up as far as you can and try to get as much curvature in the spine to affect that area. Now go down and do it again and during this process what you again are trying to achieve is the centralization phenomenon that I spoke about earlier getting the pain, numbness and tingling to leave the foot, get it into the calf, into the thigh, into the buttock into the low back and then eventually to get it to leave altogether so that the patient may resume normal activities, improve range of motion, and become more active."
