Because traditional therapies (such as physiotherapy and medications) are not always effective, people with low back pain often seek complementary and alternative therapies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the selected Swedish massage therapy protocol on pain in women aged 40 to 45 years with chronic non-specific low back pain in Bandar Abbas.
Results: Mean and standard deviation of age was 42.64 1 1.8 years, height was 162.58 4 4.2 cm, weight was 62.25 4 4.5 kg and body mass index was 25.25. It was 23.53 kg / m2. The results of independent t-test showed that there was no significant difference between the mean of age, height, weight and body mass index in massage and control groups. Statistical analysis of the data showed that there was a significant difference between the mean pain after the intervention in the two groups of massage therapy and control (t -11.03, P = 0.01).
