Effectiveness of the Feldenkrais Method on Self-Perception of Anxiety, Fatigue and Depression in Fibromyalgic Patients

Abstract

We conducted a randomized study on a small group of patients suffering from fibromyalgia, using the Feldenkrais method as a specific motor activity to evaluate the changes in fatigue, anxiety and depression perceived by the patients. Self-completion questionnaires were used at the beginning and at the end of a 24-week trial period. The results are favorable for a reduction in fatigue and depression in the enrolled patients.
