Summary

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of providing an e-Health rehabilitation program through a web platform performing electroanalgesia and an exercise program following the McKenzie Method for patients with chronic low back pain in primary care, compared with the same home rehabilitation program but without the support of an electronic program.

Conditions

  • Chronic Low-back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Home Rehabilitation Program

It consists in a home rehabilitation program performing electroanalgesia and an exercise program following the Mckenzie method. Patients will be instructed in the use of the TENS device using 5x9cm electrodes at the bilateral paravertebral level, the patients that present radicular pain, the electrodes will be placed in the path of the affected nerve. The realization of exercises will be through the application of an Mckezie protocol. The duration will be the same as that used to carry out the Mckenzie protocol. Mckenzie exercises are designed to make changes in the internal components periarticular of the spine.
