Summary

Low back pain (LBP) is the leading musculoskeletal condition in burden of disease and years lived with disability. This high ranking is in large part due to the high prevalence of LBP. LBP is not only mechanically related to spinal pathophysiology (i.e., postural alterations, articular stiffness, or muscle weakness), but may also be influenced by psychosocial factors such as attitudes and beliefs. Multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs, which include biopsychosocial management, resulted in a better outcome. The aim of this project is to determine if the change in LBP-related knowledge and attitudes toward LBP are correlated with the change in LBP-related pain, disability, fear avoidance, and emotional states of depression, anxiety, and stress after three months. The second aim is to investigate the effect of adding LBP knowledge related education sessions to standard physical therapy treatment on patients' LBP knowledge, attitudes toward LBP, LBP-related pain, disability, fear avoidance, and emotional symptoms in comparison to standard physical therapy alone.

Conditions

  • Low Back Pain

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Education

A one hour educational session per week for 4 weeks. In a total of 4 sessions of education, the content based on LBP Clinical Practice Guidelines which recommended that education and counseling strategies for patients with low back pain. Education session will be through video lecturing as a motivated tool of education for all subject who are in experimental group, this video will repeated the same in every educational session and will be sent for all participants. The neuroscience education will be by the therapist using interactive slide show and hand-drawing images. In addition to the education video, slide show, we will specify the education for every patient to give him all that he need, questions and details, mention his case on real spine to explore it and to determine the expected goal from what he need and what we have.

BEHAVIORAL

Standard physical therapy

Two session physical therapy per week for 4 weeks. The physical therapy will be based on patients case.
