Virtual Reality-based Induction to Improve Positive Body Image in Low Back Pain Patients.

The aim of this study is to examine the effects of a Virtual Reality-based induction to modify positive body image in individuals with low back pain. Participants will receive both a positive and a negative induction of the appreciation of body functionality. This induction consists of an elaborated narrative to increase/decrease the appreciation of functionality. In addition, each induction includes a virtual costume representing their body's strengths or weaknesses to enrich the induction. After both induction procedures, participants will perform activities of daily living involving the use of the lumbar region in virtual reality. Subsequently, the different variables of interest will be assessed before and after each induction. Researchers will analyze changes in the variables of interest after induction procedures compared to baseline.
