We examined 60 patients with concomitant metabolic disorders in the form of obesity. Results. The effectiveness of the use of non-drug methods, namely therapeutic exercises with elements of yoga practice and reflexology in the complex therapy of patients with chronic pain in the lower back in combination with metabolic disorders, has been proven.

The use of these methods allows to achieve a positive effect, which manifests itself in reducing the intensity of the pain syndrome and improving the functionality of patients, as well as correction of concomitant metabolic disorders.
