Resumo
Lower back pain is the most frequent type of work-related pain. However, the quality of noninvasive clinical practice guidelines is poorly presented. Because of this fact, the aim of this
study is to compare the effectiveness of neurodynamic techniques (tension techniques versus
sliding techniques) in lower back pain while also analyzing advances related to anatomy,
physiology, and biomechanics concerning neuro-musculoskeletal interference. Only
randomized clinical trials published in Portuguese and English were selected, evaluating the
effects of neurodynamic techniques in individuals with lower back pain. Studies conducted in
animals or with healthy participants, case reports, case-control studies, and cohort studies
were excluded. The methods to be evaluated were sliding and neural tension techniques,
totaling nine studies, with only two of them focusing on neurodynamic sliding practice, mostly
presenting neural tension practices. This mini review reveals the variability in the applicability
of neurodynamic techniques in lower back pain effects. However, it is evident that there are
many studies on tension, and even better results when combined with other practices such as
kinesiotherapy. As a result, it was observed that both techniques lead to improvements in the
effects of lower back pain. However, the lack of studies and their limitations regarding
neurodynamics still remain inclusive, highlighting that conclusions may change over time.
