Brief summary (from the registry)
The goal of this quasi-experimental trial was to evaluate the effects of non-surgical spinal decompression on disability and pain in patients with chronic low back pain and sciatica throughout a two-month follow-up, and to analyze the relationship between demographic factors and clinical outcomes after a program of non-surgical spinal decompression. The main questions it aims to answer were: * Non-surgical spinal decompression is effective to reduce pain intensity and self-reported disability in patients with chronic low back pain and sciatica? * Age, level of education and work activities are related with clinical outcome in patients treated with non-surgical spinal decompression? Participants underwent eight sessions, three per week, with the BTL-6000 spinal decompression system. The study did not have a comparison group.
