Hey Kristin!

Thanks for the question. So with the 2021 revision to the LBP CPG came strong supporting evidence for the utilization of both thrust and non-thrust mobilization for patients with chronic LBP (without leg pain). This came in addition to the ongoing strong evidence that supports the use of thrust and non-thrust mobilizations for patients with acute LBP. We intentionally worded the question this way to highlight this new strongly support recommendation. So to you’re question, specifically, this is the correct answer because this patient present with recurring chronic LBP (aka duration of symptoms) which was a new revelation that came from the 2021 revision. prior to that being published that wouldn’t have been the case.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Happy Studying!

Marcus
