This essay presents the establishment of the “Back School” in Brazil and how it has been used as a prevention and treatment form of the spine pains since its foundation in 1969. In Brazil, the results of various studies on the subject have varied consequences which can question its effectiveness. In search of a profile and the need to know the effects on this program, it was necessary to review the literature on the establishment and spreading of the “Back School” in Brazil, the several changes and adjustments that have occurred for years, the resources used, where this type of School has been established, and also the results presented by each one of them concerning their effectiveness in patients with chronic low back pain.
