Summary

This study evaluates the treatment of hamstrings in the management of patients with mechanical low back pain of non-specific origin.

Conditions

  • Low Back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Dry needling in hamstring muscle trigger points

Participants with nonspecific mechanical low back pain will be assessed for the hamstring muscle. Subsequently, the most sensitive areas associated with the shortening of the muscle will be located and the technique will be applied to this area.

Dry needling in hamstring muscle not trigger points

Participants with nonspecific mechanical low back pain will be assessed for the hamstring muscle. Subsequently, the most sensitive areas associated with the shortening of the muscle will be located and the technique will be applied out of this area.
