Brief Summary
Lumbar arthrodesis is more and more common in general population. Patients need early reeducation after surgery but do not always have access to a physiotherapist. The investigators aim to study the benefits of self-rehabilitation at home after lumbar arthrodesis, showing amelioration in lumbar pain and in quality of life for concerned patients. For this, the investigators designed a randomized-controlled study to test if self-rehabilitation at home right after surgery is superior than rehabilitation done by a physiotherapist 4 to 6 weeks after surgery (standard treatment for our patients).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change of lumbar pain
Improvement of Short Form 36 score (SF-36) Unit : number of points Each item is graded on a scale of 0 to 100, with 0 and 100 serving as the lowest and highest possible scores. A higher number indicates that the subject is in better overall health.
At 6 weeks and 3 months after surgery
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Improvement of functional abilities
At 6 weeks and 3 months after surgery
Improvement of ranges of motion - Ely test
At 6 weeks and 3 months after surgery
Improvement of ranges of motion - Straight Leg Test
At 6 weeks and 3 months after surgery
Improvement of ranges of motion - Schober test
At 6 weeks and 3 months after surgery
Study Arms (2)
Standard of care
NO INTERVENTIONSelf rehabilitation at home
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
6 week program of exercise at home of gradual intensity and duration
Eligibility Criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Surgery for posterolateral lumbar arthrodesis, from a degenerative etiology, from 1 to 3 lumbar levels (one level means one inter-somatic space)
- Surgery indication after optimal medical treatment, including appropriate pain medicine, and fail of medical treatment for reducing lumbar pain and/or nerve root pain and/or limp
- Return home possible after surgery
- After signing consent during pre-operative visit with the surgeon
- People under 18 years-old
- Pregnant or breast-feeding women
- Psychiatric and/or neurodegenerative comorbidity
