Aims: Low Back Pain (LBP) is a cosly, recurrent and prevalent health problem among nurses. This sudy aimed to explore the effect of a multidimensional education program on changing unhealthy behaviors of nurses. 
Insrument & Methods: This pre-posed designed sudy was carried out on 34 nursing sudents.  Interventional program was accomplished in a three-hour session, in which the participants were familiar with musculoskeletal sysem, the right posures of this sysem, occupational factors which may cause skeletal LBP, skills of doing back exercise behaviors. The second and third hour of this session mentally factors influencing on LBP, the ways and techniques to manage daily sresses as well as healthy social skills in lifetime were discussed. The demographic and behavior quesionnaires were flled at pre and pos intervention. The data were entered into SPSS and analyzed through the paired T-Test.
Findings: Of 34 nursing sudents, 27 sudents with mean age of 22.44±2.76 completed the sudy. At 2- month follow up, the participants did back exercise signifcantly compared to initial of the sudy (p=0.003). Furthermore, keeping healthy posure of vertebra while walking and sanding were signifcantly better than before intervention (p=0.001 and p=0.05 respectively).
Conclusion: This sudy revealed that the educational intervention could be resulted in healthy behaviors of the nursing sudents to prevent LBP.
