The first one was asurvey aimed at collecting important information concerning thecourse of the ailment, socio-demographic data, occupational activityand particular elements of lifestyle. The second part covered the seriesof anthropometric measurements (body mass, height, waist and hipcircumference). In the next phase the assessment of functional capacity impairment of the examined patients was carried out with the application of the Oswestry Disability Index as well as the measurement of the pain intensity was made using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).As a result of performed tests it was stated that three quarters of both examined genders had overweight and obesity constituting respectively 318 patients (78.5%).
