Detailed Description:
The subjects will initially be scanned by diagnostic ultrasound by to assess the cross sectional area of their lumbar multifidi. Then they will perform 3 sets of 30 second periods of Logan Short Arc Banding on the ATM machine twice a week for 4 weeks and then they will be scanned again using diagnostic ultrasound to assess the effects of the rehabilitation exercise.
