Study Groups

Home rehabilitation program
It consists in a home rehabilitation program. Patients will recieve electroanalgesia with TENS and an exercise program following the McKenzie method. At first and second sessions, patients will be instructed on how to use electroanalgesia and how to perform the exercises. Then, patients will perform the therapy at home. Patients will perform the treatment 3 times per week, for 4 weeks, with a total of 24 sessions
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.
e-Health program
It consists in a support system for the treatment of chronic low back pain based on web technologies. The system can register a subject and provide a treatment of electroanalgesia and exercise through the Mckenzie method. Video applications of electroanalgesia and exercises will be shown to patients who use their computer or mobile device to access the platform through the Internet. The treatments will be recommended by the system based on the database that is configured to accommodate the application of electroanalgesia and McKenzie exercises based on the diagnosis according to the McKenzie method.patients will perform the treatment 3 times per week, for 4 weeks, with a total of 24 sessions
