Brief Summary

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

Non-specific chronic low back pain is the main cause of public spending on health care and labor, with a prevalence of 10.2%. Its therapeutic management is difficult, with moderate levels of pain and persistent disability over time, influenced by psychosocial factors, such as "fear-avoidance" beliefs. The supervised therapeutic exercise program associated with an educational component is one of the most effective interventions to reduce pain and disability in these patients, but its efficacy seems to be less if there are erroneous beliefs, avoidance attitudes, or fear of physical activity, since it makes it difficult to follow the recommendations. The Back School would address this problem, seeking to improve pain, disability and increase quality of life.
