Chronicity of low back dysfunction is mainly due to proprioceptive impairment, which impedes recovery. Of this study was to assess and explain from physiological point of view the efficacy of spinal manipulation on proprioceptive properties of lumbar spine (and consequently on ADL performance) in chronic low back dysfunction patients. Thirty male chronic low back dysfunction patients represented the sample of the study. Their age ranged from 18 to 30 years. The patients were assigned into two equal groups; control group (G1) and study group (G2). The control group was treated by a selected McKenzie therapy program and the study group was treated by the same program in addition to spinal manipulative therapy. The physical therapy program was conducted two times per week, for six weeks. Repositioning accuracy and oswestry disability scale were used to assess and establish the patient's results
