暂无简介。

•Participants with chronic non-specific LBP will be recruited. Participants will be required to have an average pain score greater than or equal to 4/10 on a numerical rating scale in the week prior to enrolment and a minimum score of 4 points on the Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) to limit the potential for floor effects.

•Participants will be excluded if they: i) present with specific spinal pathology (tumour, spondylolythesis, fracture etc.), nerve root pain or co-existing major muscular, joint, neurological or psychiatric conditions (Airaksinen et al., 2006; Saragiotto et al., 2016), ii) have undergone back surgery, iii) are currently undertaking a structured exercise program for LBP, or (vi) present with contraindications to tDCS (e.g. cuts or blisters under the electrode sites) or conditioned pain modulation techniques (e.g. loss of sensation).
