Manual Therapy Plus Capacitive and Resistive Electric Transfer Therapy in Individuals With Chronic Low Back Pain

"The protocol will last 30 minutes and will include the application of the following manual techniques:~* Lumbar soft tissue and joint cranial and lateral mobilization with the patient in the supine position~* Bilateral medial lumbar soft tissue mobilization~* Functional massage on the quadratus lumborum muscle with the patient in a lateral position on both sides~* Extension with coupled sidebending mobilization of the thoracic area with the patient in a lateral position on both sides~* Soft tissue lateral mobilization of the thoracic area with the patient in a lateral position on both sides"

The participants of this group will be given the same manual protocol as the first group in combination with the application of high frequency current. Soft tissue mobilization manipulations will be applied in combination with a capacitive conventional electrode and with a special electrode bracelet that makes the therapist's own hand as an antistatic electrode. The frequencies of the high frequency current will be 300khz, 500khz, and 1MHz, while as a reference electrode a flexible self-adhesive ground will be used placed on the abdomen

Participants in this group will only receive general instructions about managing their back pain and counseling about avoiding activities that may worsen their symptoms.
