Inclusion Criteria: * sufficient French level to understand the instructions for the tests, the information sheet, the consent form and the questionnaires * All chronic low back pain patients should present with non-specific low back pain (pain from lower ribs to gluteal folds) for more than 3 months. Exclusion Criteria: * pregnancy * body mass index (BMI) that is above 32 * patients should not have any sign of specific low back pain such as the presence of infection, rheumatological or neurological diseases, spinal fractures, any known important spinal deformities, previous back surgery that limits spinal mobility, tumours * high level of pain at the time of experiment that prevents repeated movements (severity and irritability) * other concomitant pain or condition that could compromise the evaluation of spinal kinematics.
