In the experimental group (EGR), the 4MTOR® treatment method will be used for LBP. This 4MTOR® uses the following steps in a decision tree: T1 Testing (Physiotherapeutic examination), T2 Triggering (Manual Techniques), T3 Taping (Elastic Tape) and T4 Training (medical rehabilitation exercises). The participants in the SGR received a sham multimodal physiotherapeutic intervention as control intervention, in which Sham technique were applied. The interventions consisted of combining Sham manual interventions, elastic tapes according to Kaze32 and Evidence Based Practice Therapy (Appendix III). The protocol in the SGR follows the similar steps: Testing, Taping, Triggering and Training like the 4MTOR®.
