IDP during 30° of motorized flexion with and without manual contact. Intradiscal pressure (IDP) recordings from the L4-L5 disc during motorized flexion of 30° without manual contact (A) and with manual thumb contact applied cranialward to the L4 spinous (B). Note the additional ~ 1.4 kPa decrease in IDP with applied physical contact
