Using PubMed, I combined various terms for searching articles regarding the subject. At first, I found some articles giving specific information concerning low back pain in pregnancy and the epidemiology, risk factors, cause. Later on, I searched for articles including physiotherapy and its treatment. Because there was an overload of information with contradictory studies, it was difficult to exclude some information. I searched for new articles in the references for other relevant studies and visited many libraries for a book on this subject. Eventually I found a few books about low back pain itself, but not really in relation to pregnancy.
