      One day, a great gathering of healthcare professionals occurred in the city of Fair Haven, State of Michigan, and Country of the United States of America. There present were physical therapists, and there were physicians: general practitioners, physiatrists, sports medicine doctors, orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, neurosurgeons, osteopathic physicians, there were chiropractors, there were athletic trainers, there were kinesiologists, acupuncturists, massage therapists, there were rolfers, there were athletic trainers and personal trainers. And, there were, present, people with low back pain.

      Also, present, at that great gathering was Robin McKenzie, P.T., Florence Kendal, P.T., Shirley Sahrmann, P.T., Brian Mulligan, P.T., Jonathan Hoffman, P.T.
