Background: Angiography is one of the most important diagnostic procedures of heart patients is that despite many advantages in the detection of coronary artery disease , has caused many problems for patients. To prevent these complications, the patient is recommended bed rest. Followed this situation, back pain occurred and low back pain is common among these patients.

The mean pain score in the test group prior to the intervention was 4/05 with a standard deviation 2/24 and after intervention was 2/47 with standard deviation 1/66. pain score in the control group prior to the intervention was 3/52 with a standard deviation 1/93 and after intervention was 3/45 with standard deviation 1/82.
