Brief summary (from the registry)

The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of peloidotherapy and exercise combination applied on patients with chronic low back pain on pain level, functionality and quality of life. Forty patients between the ages of 18-65 who were diagnosed with chronic low back pain were included. The patients were randomly divided into two groups as the peloidotherapy and exercise group (n=20) and the peloidotherapy group (n=20). Peloidotherapy was applied to the peloidotherapy and peloidotherapy and exercise groups in 10 sessions, 30 minutes, 45°C package. In addition, after peloidotherapy, core stabilization exercises were applied to the peloidotherapy and exercise group for 10 sessions, 5 days a week, for 30 minutes. The patients were evaluated before the first session, after the 10th session and one month after the treatment. Pain level was evaluated with the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), functionality was evaluated with the Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire (ODI), and quality of life was evaluated with the Short Form-36 (SF36). After the applications, statistically significant improvement was achieved in both groups (p\<0.05). The outcomes of the peloidotherapy and exercise group were found to be superior to the peloidotherapy group after the 10th session. At the end of the first month, it was observed that the combination of peloidotherapy and exercise therapy in chronic low back pain had a significant improvement in pain, functionality and quality of life
