Abstract		Pain in the spine is a problem encountered by physical therapists every day. In this article the author presents the McKenzie method of spinal mechanical therapy, which includes individual treatment of each patient based on personal history, examination, symptoms in one of three syndromes and the choice of therapy. The patient performs the therapy himself; the physical therapist's role is to lead and direct the patient. 75% of patients using the McKenzie method of spinal mechanical therapy report improvement and positive results.
