Dry Needling Versus Percutaneous Electrolysis in Lumbar Multifidus Muscles in Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain.
Sponsor: University of Alcala
Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the reduction of pain of two different treatments in patients with chronic low back pain. Patients were divided in two groups. The control group will receive DN treatment, and the experimental group will receive PE, both in the lumbar multifidus muscles.

Interventions
Dry needling
It consists in application of dry needling on active and/or latent TPs in low back multifidus muscles
