Description
Yeong-Jae Shin and colleagues pilot thrust against soft manual therapy for back pain, in a trial from 2026. Korean Chuna therapy corrects joint drift by hand, in thrust or gentle forms. Big trials of the two forms are rare, so a pilot must prove one can run cleanly.
Thirty patients with back pain and pelvic drift split evenly across two centres. Nearly all finished the set sessions and stayed through twenty-four weeks of checks. Pain and disability scores improved in both groups over the trial course. Early gaps favoured thrust care, but the pilot was too small for firm calls. Nine mild side events cleared on their own with no lasting harm.
