This study is aimed at patients consulting a physiotherapist for acute low-back pain at risk of becoming chronic. The goal of this study is to compare two types of rehabilitation programs for these patients, on their functional disability at 3 months: * A multidisciplinary program lasting two weeks, including physiotherapists, rheumatologists, physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists, occupational physicians, psychologists, etc. * A monodisciplinary physiotherapy rehabilitation program consisting of active treatment with a physiotherapist, with 2 to 3 sessions per week for 4 to 5 weeks, based on muscle-strengthening exercises for the trunk and lower limbs and stretching exercises for the back and lower limbs. Patients will be evaluated before treatment (baseline), and at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months to evaluate the following secondary outcomes: pain, absence of chronicity, evolution of functional disability, muscle endurance, flexibility, level of fear, apprehension and avoidance associated with low back pain over the time, return to work and to physical activities, painful relapses and analgesic treatment consumption.
