Summary

Telerehabilitation enables patients to easily adapt to home exercise programs and to be monitored remotely by their clinicians. The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of the home exercise program, which is integrated into 8-week remote asynchronous video telerehabilitation sessions, on clinical status in terms of pain, functionality, quality of life parameters, as well as patient expectation, motivation, and satisfaction levels.

Conditions

  • Chronic Low-back Pain

Interventions

OTHER

Telerehabilitation

The home exercise program includes the following exercises: 1. Lumbar region and lower extremity stretching exercises; 2. Exercises to strengthen the abdominal muscles; 3. Exercises to strengthen the lumbar muscles; 4. Bridging, spine mobility exercise, McKenzie extension, and Williams flexion exercises A web-based telerehabilitation platform (Fizyoweb) will be used to deliver the exercise program. Using the Fizyoweb web application, exercises will be presented to the patients in the form of audio-video and detailed instructions with explanations. The exercise program to be given will be prescribed specifically with slight changes according to the patient's condition. The exercise protocol will be the same as in the conventional rehabilitation group. Patients will be asked to do the exercises once a day for 8 weeks and 10 repetitions each.
