Sponsor's own description

The Effect of Structured Pain Education on Pain and Performance Parameters in Patients with Chronic Low Back Pain

The aim of this study is to compare the effects of only Low Load Motor Control Exercises and Pain Education in addition to these exercises on pain, performance, disability and psychological factors, and to present a generalizable pain education in patients with chronic low back pain. We think that DYMK exercises applied together with a general Pain Education given to the patients will provide more improvement on these factors.

The patients will be divided into 2 groups, as a pain training group and an exercise group, with 20 people in each group, in a randomized controlled manner. Only DYMK exercise training will be applied to the exercise group. In the pain training group, pain training will be applied in addition to the DYMK exercise training.

As an evaluation parameter to the participants; Numerical Rating Scale, Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire, Pain Catastrophizing Scale, Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale, Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire, Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire, Passive Lumbar Extension Test, Finger-Place Test and Physical Performance Test Battery will be applied. Patients will be evaluated before the start of the study (T0) and at the end of the study (T1).

Low Load Motor Control Exercises will be applied to people in both groups for 4 weeks, 3 days a week, during 20-30 minute sessions. In addition to the DYMK exercise training, a session of 30 to 50 minutes of Pain Training in groups of 4 to 5 people will be given to the patients included in the Pain Training group at the beginning of the exercise training and the exercise training will begin.
