Markolf and Morris suggests that the deranged disk and torn annulus have an exellent recovery ability from the position of spine extension, where the posterior annulus is not under stress and the gel can move anterioly. McKenzie explains side gliding as a combination of rotation and side bending, his clinical studies indicate that side-gliding can gel laterally. In conclusion, the prone unilateral traction on the opposite side from the patient's pain along with the other treatment appered to have helped reduce those patient's pain. The method of treatment described in this report is suggested for Korean physical therapists who treat patients suspected of posterolateral herniated nucleus pulposus.
