Experimental: monopolar dielectric diathermy

The Experimental Group formed by 30 subjects will undergo an application of monopolar electrical diathermy by radiofrequency emission (MDR) using the Physicalm® device developed by the electro-medicine company Biotronic Advance Develops SL, on the lumbar muscles by means of rotary movements and translation, adapting to the muscle fibers of the lumbar area. A pulsed emission of 840 KHz and 30v will be made dynamically during a treatment time of 20 minutes. 3 weekly sessions will be performed for 3 weeks, a total of 9 treatment sessions.

OTHER

Control: Placebo

"The 30 participants in the control group will receive a placebo treatment, consisting of the same execution protocol as the EG, but with a non-emitting device whose software and hardware will be exactly the same as that used in the EG. The intervention will be simulated for 20 minutes.~3 weekly sessions will be held for 3 weeks, a total of 9 treatment sessions."
