Abstract

A targeted approach based on mesotherapy, a specific sacroiliac belt and specific stabilizing exercises proved its efficacy in acute and sub-acute low back pain patients with symptoms and signs suggesting a sacroiliac dysfunction. As soon as it will be possible to identify particular spine syndromes in the universe of non specific low back pain, there will also be the possibility to employ specific therapies.
