<![CDATA[Low back pain restricts activity and causes work absenteeism. Cases of low back pain are common worldwide. This paper presents the design of multimedia-based low back pain myogenic therapy aids. Data collection involves observation and interviews with medical rehabilitation specialists and physiotherapists. The collected data is represented using a production ruler in the form of if - then. Rule-based reasoning can be used as an expert system knowledge base in cases of myogenic low back pain. Forward chaining can be used as an inference engine for similar cases because the reasoning starts from the facts section before reaching the hypothesis. Design of this assistive device model is expected to provide information regarding the choice of therapy for low back pain myogenic by patients, independently at home or with the help of close family. Application design is multimedia-based to make it easier for users to look at examples visually. The expert system application is well accepted by users. Ten physiotherapists and one doctor consider the application performance good because it attains an acceptable value of 0.80 or 80%. The physiotherapists suggest that this assistive device model will likely increase the intensity of therapy because it can be carried out by the patient's family independently.]]>
