This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial with control group to study the effectiveness of Back School programs on pain and gait speed in patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain. In 60 patients with Non-specific low back pain (12 males 48 female, mean age 57.60±6.86 yr., BMI 22.27±2.61 kg/m2), 30 randomized subjects, the control group received standard treatment. The experimental group participated in 2 training activities with a Back School program manual and program compliance record form. Data were collected 2 times (At baseline and 2 months). The tools for data collection were the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) and Maximal 10-Meter Gait Speed (10-MGS). In this study, paired t-test statistics were used to test within the experimental and control groups, and independent t-test statistics were used to test between the experimental and control groups at 2 months. It was found that subjects of the experimental group had improvement on mean NRS and 10-MGS significantly (p<.001). The control group had improved on mean NRS significantly (p<.001), But the average Maximal 10-Meter Gait Speed (10-MGS) of the experimental group was better than the control group. Conclusion: The Back School program is effective in reducing pain and improve gait speed. This school program can be applied to the context of a community hospital or Sub-District Health Promoting Hospital with similar contexts
