Objective: The purpose was to compare the effectiveness of the Pilates Method versus the Back School in specialized care, assessing improving the disability with the Roland Morris questionnaire and the perceived pain with the visual analog scale (VAS) in people with non-specific chronic low back pain. Method: Single-blind randomized controlled trial to determine the effects of the Pilates Method for patients with low back pain compared to Back School exercises, two groups of 48 patients, 3-month treatment period. Results: The Pilates Group (GP) recorded significant improvements in all of the variables that were the subject for this research, compared to those provided by the Back School Group (GEE). In the Roland Morris questionnaire of 0,41 points [GP (Mean difference [MD] Pretreatment-posttreatment =2,08; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1,21 to 2,95; p=0,001) vs GEE ( MD=1,66; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0,90 to 2,43; p=0,001 )]. In the visual analog scale (VAS) of 0,40 points [ GP (Mean difference [MD] Pretreatment-posttreatment =1,82; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1,24 to 2,40; p=0,001 ) vs GEE (MD=1,42; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0,82 to 2,04; p=0,001)]. Conclusions: The treatment of nonspecific low back pain with therapeutic Pilates is more effective than the therapeutic treatment of the Back School, both in terms of functional disability and intensity of pain.
