| Intensity of pain. Timepoint: The measurement of pain intensity is done at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 8 weeks later (after the end of the intervention period). Method of measurement: Visual analog scale questionnaire is used to measure pain intensity in eligible patients.;The endurance (stability) of trunk muscles. Timepoint: The endurance of the trunk muscles is measured at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 8 weeks later (after the end of the intervention period). Method of measurement: McGill functional tests are used to measure the stability of the extensor, flexor and lateral muscles of the trunk.;Static and dynamic balance. Timepoint: The measurement of static and dynamic balance is done at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 8 weeks later (after the end of the intervention period). Method of measurement: In order to evaluate static and dynamic balance, the Shirley, NY Biodex device, made in the USA, is used. This device has various tests to evaluate static and dynamic balance.;Electrical activity of trunk muscles. Timepoint: The electrical activity of the trunk muscles is measured at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 8 weeks later (after the end of the intervention period). Method of measurement: In this research, a surface electromyography device (Actos wireless model, made in Switzerland) with a frequency range of 1000 Hz is used. | — |
