The authors subdivide rehabilitation in sport-induced low back pain into two phases. The first is represented by prevention, the second by the means and therapeutic procedures apt to lead to the regression of the disorder once it has become manifest. In the case of acute low back pain, rest, drug treatment and physiotherapy are of special importance. When symptoms are subsiding, i.e. in the post-acute or stabilization phase, a specific program of rehabilitation must be applied consisting of postural reeducation and kinesitherapy for the recovery of muscle equilibrium.
