Among the diseases that are accompanied by pain in the lumbar spine and extremities, osteochondrosis occupies one of the main places. The influence of the developed rehabilitation program on the quality of life of patients with lumbar osteochondrosis, the condition of the muscular corset and the ability to recover after physical exertion were evaluated. The expediency of using in the subacute and restorative periods of physical rehabilitation has been revealed, instead of special exercises in the main part of therapeutic gymnastics classes to include fitness technologies (yoga, Pilates), an apparatus for physiological spinal traction “ORMED-prophylaxis” and a rowing simulator, taking into account the individual characteristics of those involved and the dynamics of the spine condition. Classes were conducted in the subacute period (gentle and gentle-training mode) and in the period of remission (training mode).
