Adapted exercises versus general exercise recommendations on chronic low back pain in industrial workers: A randomized control pilot study.

Background: Exercise has been demonstrated as effective for the treatment of low back pain (LBP) in workers.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether an exercise program adapted to the characteristics of the workplace is a useful supplement to general exercise recommendations in assembly line workers with chronic LBP.

Methods: Workers were randomly assigned to intervention group-adapted exercises plus general exercise recommendations (n = 10), and control group-general exercise recommendations (n = 8).
