Summary

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of motivational interviewing (MI) on adherence to exercises and on levels of pain and incapacity in patients who engage in physiotherapy for low back pain. Sixty patients attending a 15-day program of physiotherapy for low back pain were allocated to experimental (EG) and control groups (CG). A regular treatment of physiotherapy with at-home exercises is offered to all participants. On day seven, MI is applied to the EG. The CG receives an anti-inflammatory information program.
