FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medical rehabilitation, physical and rehabilitation medicine, physiotherapy, neurology, traumatology and orthopedics, rheumatology, therapeutic physical training, health resort business, and can be used for the treatment of musculoskeletal non-specific pain in the lower back. Lower thoracic and lumbar-sacral spine are exposed to 10 low-intensity infrared laser therapy procedures in fields of 2–3 fields on each side, for 2–4 minutes per field. Duration of 12–16 minutes for 6–8 minutes on each side, power up to 100 W, with frequency of pulses 1,200–1,500 Hz. Then, with interval of 15–20 minutes, 10 procedures of low-frequency electrostatic therapy are applied, by treating the right and left sides with a manual applicator with successive frequency variation of 200 Hz, 100 Hz and 50 Hz for 3–4 minutes at each frequency for 18–24 minutes for 9–12 minutes on each side.
