Exclusion Criteria: * Previous fractures and/or surgery in the vertebral spine. * Neuropathic pain extending along the lower limb due to nerve root compression. * History of spine trauma or fracture. * Implanted pacemakers. * Pregnancy. * Malignancy. * Systemic musculoskeletal diseases. * Epilepsy. * History of psychiatric disorders. * Obesity
