Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This clinical pilot trial will investigate the effects of technology-supported exercise therapy for chronic non-specific low back pain. Patients will follow an intensive rehabilitation program (2x/week for 18 weeks), with emphasis on motor control training that is supported by technology. The technological system consists out of motion tracking sensors that register the movements and position of the lumbar spine.
