Abstract

Low back pain (LBP) is one of the disabilities that most affects the adult population (70%) today. At present, too much importance has been given to biomechanical factors and concern about them, such as maintaining correct postural hygiene, without paying attention to other factors such as the person's environmental context and economic conditions. In this review work we have tried to review in depth the causes, treatment and readaptation of chronic non-specific low back pain, which precisely corresponds to 85% of cases of low back pain. The databases used for the search for information were Scopus, Sportdiscus, Pubmed and different high impact journals according to Web of Science. Current evidence suggests that it should be evaluated and treated from a more integrated approach such as the biopsychosocial model, carried out by a multidisciplinary team, where the patient is an active part of the readaptation process, in which it will be as important to evaluate the different factors that have caused its appearance and treatment, as well as its prevention. Therefore, this work proposes an intervention based on a physical exercise program adapted and individualized to the conditions of the subject, as well as an educational intervention on the causes and evolution of this disability, avoiding the generation of kinesiophobic behavior triggering sedentary behavior.
