Abstract:

This study presents a simple scale for assessing and monitoring the benefic results of the rehabilitation therapy applied and particularly suggests the treatment of patients with lumbo-sacro-pelvic muscle and ligaments pains in a stages program of medical rehabilitation with physical support. The classification on degrees of severity shows that 79.4% of patients suffered from severe pains (between 7 and 10 points) and the remaining 20.6% suffered from average pains. The initial anti - inflammatory and decontracturant treatment supported by thermal electro – kinetic and massotherapy procedures was applied daily for three weeks. Being well known that lumbosacral muscle and ligaments algofunctional syndromes are affections that relapse frequently, we consider that it is necessary to monitor and treat them by periodic recovery, without waiting for the relapses or for any complications to appear, as they are more difficult to treat.


Keywords: lumbo-sacral, anti - inflammatory, recovery
