Brief Summary

This is an observational study that aims to characterize individual response of patients getting physical therapy for chronic non-specific low back pain. Participants will be classified based on a questionnaire and motor tests to investigate whether individual improvement after physical therapy may be predicted. These observations may help to decide which should be the preferred treatment offered.
