Brief Summary: This study aims to investigate the effects of telerehabilitation and supervised stabilization exercises on pain functionality kinesophobia and quality of life in individuals with non-specific chronic low back pain 72 individuals who voluntarily agree to participate in the study will be included This study divides the patients in three groups the supervised group face-to-face stabilization exercises are applied the telerehabilitation group treatment through online meetings and the control group patients will do home-based exercises that prescribed by physiothrerapist Evaluations will be made by the same physiotherapist The researcher who will make the measurements in this study will not know which treatment program was applied to the participants In this study The same stabilization exercises will be applied in three different groups Ten different stabilization exercises will be applied to the participants Exercises will be performed for 20-30 minutes in each session three times a week for four weeks in total twelve sessions Clinical and demographic data of the 72 people participating in the study will be taken before treatment Participants will also fill out questionnaires before and after the treatment that involve the Oswestry Disability Index to measureODI daily life activity limitations the Visual Analogue ScaleVAS for assessing the intensity of pain Tampa Scale for KinesiophobiaTSK to assess fear of movement and the Short FormSF-36 in order to assess self-perceived health-related quality of life Statistical analysis is going to be used in this research through the SPSS 200 package program
Detailed Description: Today low back pain is one of the most common health problems in the world in which create a considerable individual social and financial burden on the society Low back pain is classified as specific and nonspecific While 10 percent of the paints are suffered from specific low back pain non-specific low back pain is occured in approximately 90 percent of the population If low back pain persists for six weeks it is classified as acute back pain subacute back pain between six weeks and three months and chronic low back pain if it lasts for more than three months

Chronic low back pain CLBP is a complex problem that continues for a long time without a cause and is the most common in the musculoskeletal system leading to disability Individuals with CLBP have a lower quality of life than the general population It causes individuals to decrease their activities due to pain and prepares the ground for the continuation of pain Lack of movement caused by pain in individuals It negatively affects the quality of life by triggering the continuation of symptoms causing a decrease in functional levels limitation in daily life activities problems in family and work life There are many physical psychological and social factors that cause low back pain to become chronic Age race occupation obesity smoking alcohol consumption and stress are the most important factors that trigger the chronicity of low back pain The effectiveness of a multidisciplinary treatment program and determination of risk factors in the management of CLBP is known Treatment approaches include medical treatment surgical treatment and physiotherapy applications In physiotherapy programs patient education back schools electrotherapy applications traction massage superficial heat applications corsets and exercise approaches are used Stretching exercises trunk flexion-extension exercises resistantce exercises stabilization exercises are the main exercise approaches used to cope with low back pain In addition to exercises performed under the supervision of a physiotherapist home exercise programs are also provided for low back pain Stabilization exercises have various benefits on the musculoskeletal system Stabilization exercises that aim to protect and support the spine by regenerating muscle control applied in muscle activation losses caused by injury or degenerative changes increase strength and flexibility Stabilization exercise has been reported to be effective in reducing pain and improving functional disability in patients with nonspecific CLBP improving individuals psychologically and also increasing the quality of life of patients Stabilization exercises have been found to be effective in increasing the cross-sectional area of the lumbar multifidus muscle which is one of the muscles needed to maintain the proper stability of the spine

Today in line with technological developments the use of common information processing sensor networks three-dimensional 3D computer graphics internet and mobile phone applications in healthcare services is widespread Telerehabilitation refers to the provision of rehabilitation services through information and communication technologies Clinically this term covers a range of rehabilitation and habilitation services including assessment monitoring prevention response control training consultation and counseling Along with telerehabilitation rehabilitation practices can be applied in health centers as well as homes schools or community-based work sites Mostly there are studies in the literature regarding its use in musculoskeletal disorders coronary heart disease some types of cancer type 2 diabetes hypertension and physically disabled individuals Due to the social distance and isolation which are the effects of the covid-19 which spread in a short time in our country and all over the world there are disruptions in individuals continuing their treatment Telerehabilitation allows one-to-one physiotherapist-patient meetings without the need for contact and provides flexibility to patients in terms of time Exercise is one of the treatments that physiotherapists can give using telerehabilitation With the applications made with telerehabilitation individuals are provided to take an active role in their own rehabilitation and individuals can have the ability to manage themselves
