Screening flexion Spine
About This Test
screening of the flexion spine is a test to check how well your spine moves, especially when you bend forward.The spine is made up of bones called vertebrae, and it allows your body to bend, twist, and support movement. Flexion refers to the action of bending, such as when you lean forward to touch your toes. The goal is to find any problems early so you can get treatment and improve your flexibility and comfort while moving.
