The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of GPR associated to conventional reeducation protocol to that of the conventional reeducation protocol alone on pain, mobility, function and psychological symptoms in patients with chronic non-specific LBP. A monocentric randomized controlled study was carried out, including patients with chronic non specific LBP, who were allocated to two groups: GPR group performed GPR associated to conventional reeducation and control group performed conventional reeducation alone. Two evaluations were performed for both groups: at baseline (T0) and at the end of the 4 weeks' sessions (T1), including pain (by Visual Analog Scale), mobility (by the Fingertip-to-floor test (FFT) and the Schober index), muscle endurance (by the Shirado and the Sorensen tests), function (by the Oswestry Disability index (ODI)) and anxiety-depressive symptoms (by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD)).
