Sponsor's own description
The study investigates the effects of pain and exercise training via telerehabilitation method on pain, pain beliefs, trunk mobility, functionality, and quality of life in individuals with low back pain caused by facet joint arthrosis. Forty - five individuals are planning to include in the study. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the three groups: Group 1: Pain education + exercise training group, Group 2: Exercise training group, and Group 3: Control group. The same physiotherapist will make evaluations via an online conference system. Group 1 will have pain neuroscience education and progressive therapeutic exercise training in a session for six weeks, twice a week, and Group 2 will have progressive therapeutic exercise training in a session for six weeks, twice a week, for six weeks, in total twelve sessions. Group 3 participants will be taken to the waiting list. Clinical and demographic data of the 45 participants in the study will be taken pre and post interventions. The primary outcomes are; the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) and the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Secondary outcomes are the Active Straight Leg Raise Test (A- SLR), The Pain Belief Questionnaire (PBQ), and the Short Form Quality of Life Form (SF-12). Statistical analysis will be run through the SPSS 20.0 package program.
