Brief Summary  
Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders in both high-income countries and middle and low-income countries. Whilst there have been a number of studies investigating the current physiotherapy management of LBP in Europe, North America, and Australia, little is known about such management in Other regions of the world. The objectives of the present study were to investigate the physiotherapy management of LBP in four different countries and to compare the results with each other and those of western countries where applicable.
