Križobolja je najčešća muskuloskeletna bolest i vodeći uzrok kronične nesposobnosti. U ovom pregledu se raspravlja o vrstama i učinkovitosti konzervativnih, neinvazivnih terapijskih metoda liječenja nespecifične, mehaničke križobolje. Inicijalna terapija uključuje modifikaciju aktivnosti, medikamentnu analgetsku terapiju i edukaciju bolesnika.
