Back Pain, Transcutaneus Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), Massage Therapy.
The cause of the symptoms of non specific low back pain is the mechanics factor
because over load of the spine. Transcutaneus electrical nerve stimulation
(TENS) and massage therapy is a method that can be used to decrease pain caused
by the occurrence of non specific low back pain. This study aimed to
investigate the effect and influence of the difference between TENS with
massage therapy to decrease of pain in patients with non specific low back

into two groups: TENS (group 1) and massage therapy (group 2). All patients were
evaluated before and after treatment using a visual analog scale. Mann whitney
test hypothesis testing in the group of TENS obtained QVAS value p = 0,026,
while in the group massage therapy obtained QVAS value p = 0,024 are
statistically significant decrease pain. Wilcoxon test result hypothesis
between TENS with massage therapy obtained after treatment p = 0,004 means
there is significant difference between TENS with massage therapy. TENS was
more effective in improving pain than massage therapy for patient with non
