Through systematic random sampling and random assignment, the sample included 60 DM type II patients with low back pain receiving treatment at Ban Longtong Health Promoting Hospital, Ban Pai Rongwua Health Promoting Hospital, and Borsuphan Health Promoting Hospital. The samples were randomly assigned to control an experimental group in equal numbers. The control group received Diclofenac Sodium 25 milligram and Tolperisone HCl 50 milligram 3 times a day after meals for 3 days consecutively. The experimental group received Diclofenac Sodium 25 milligram and Tolperisone HCl 50 milligram 3 times a day after each meal together with 20 minutes of Thai massage and 10 minutes of herbal compression for 3 days consecutively. The instruments used for this research were a massage handbook and a Visual Numeric Pain score. Data have been analyzed by using descriptive statistics, and t-tests.
