Spondylogenic dorsalgias occur in 70–90% of the adult population and are one of the most common causes of temporary disability. Episodes of back pain develop annually in half of the working-age population, with persons aged 35–55
years being most often affected (Kamchatnoe PR). According to the WHO experts, dorsalgia at the end of the 20th century acquired the character of a non-infectious epidemic, since about 80% of the population suffer from it during their lifetime.
There is a tendency to an increase in the frequency of pain episodes in the back.
