This study aims to identify a relationship between degree of spinal curve in the low back and length of hamstring muscles. Low back pain has been shown to be caused by an alteration in the low back spinal curve. This study may have significance in cases where people suffering from low back pain may obtain varying forms of relief by altering the length of their hamstring muscles and therefore changing their low back curve.
