Then Randomization will be done by an independent investigator and will be concealed from patients and the other investigators, Blinding description: In this study, participants in each group did not meet each other in the waiting rooms (no contamination).

      <hc_freetext>non-specific chronic low back pain.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Patients in the intervention group will be received multidimensional treatment include psychoeducation based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), education, graded exposure, postural correction exercise, Lifestyle change, and electrotherapy. Twelve 30 minute psycho-education sessions consist of the following sessions: Psychoeducation on Pain and Targeting (3 sessions), Anxiety Management, Interpersonal Conflict Management, Problem Solving Training, Training Coping strategy, Managing pain recurrent, preventing unnecessary medication use, enhancing one's ability to cope with labeling and stigma, empowering one to create a daily sleep routine, training relaxation techniques. Patients will also receive recommendations for lifestyle modifications, such as encouraging active living and a gradual increase in activity levels, improving the work environment, and training on how to perform daily and work activities correctly. Other treatments include postural correction and training of the necessary exercises, as well as the gradual initiation of movements and activities that the patient is afraid to perform. By asking the patient to perform hierarchical activities that he or she fears. The first step is to identify the movements that the patient is afraid of. The exercise begins with a movement that the patient has the least fear of, and that movement begins with the simplest state and the lowest level with the patient least feared, and gradually becomes more difficult. All of these are taught to the patient in each practice session. The patient is also asked to repeat the practice of each session at home once a day. Electrotherapy, including 20 minutes of skin electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) at 100 Hz in the lumbar region where the patient reports the most pain. The intensity of  TENS is regulated by the patient. Surface heat will be placed in the lumbar area by Hot Pack at the same time as TENS. Ultrasound with a frequency of 1 MHz and intensity of 1.2 W/cm2  will be performed using a 5 cm square applicator on the paravertebral muscle where the patient reports the most pain, for 5 minutes. The treatment in this group is twelve sessions and will be performed twice a week. Intervention 2: Patients in the active control group, treatment will include electrotherapy, education, and trunk general exercises. Education in this group includes an explanation of the basic biomechanical anatomy of the spine, common causes of spinal pain, pain processing, ergonomic advice on how to perform daily activities and postures (such as sitting, standing, moving objects, etc.) and training for postural correction exercises. General Trunk Exercise will focus on abdominal and paraspinal muscles to improve blood flow, mobility, strength, and endurance in each session, and the patient will be asked to perform exercises in each session. The intensity and type of exercise will progress toward functional training. The patient is also asked to do exercise at home once a day. Electrotherapy, including 20 minutes of skin electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) at 100 Hz in the lumbar region where the patient reports the most pain. The intensity of  TENS is regulated by the patient. Surface heat will be placed in the lumbar area by Hot Pack at the same time as TENS. Ultrasound with a frequency of 1 MHz and intensity of 1.2 W/cm2  will be performed using a 5 cm square applicator on the paravertebral muscle where the patient reports the most pain, for 5 minutes. The treatment in this group is twelve sessions and will be performed twice a week.</i_freetext>
