Heterogeneous populations and treatment techniques11 and trials with a high risk of bias have made interpretation of the evidence challenging for clinicians. The purpose of this report is to examine the clinical effectiveness and evidence-based guidelines regarding the use of manual therapy for the treatment of acute and chronic nonspecific low back pain in the adult and pediatric populations. For the purposes of this report, acute low back pain will be used synonymously with recent-onset low back pain and chronic low back pain with persistent low back pain
