Brief Summary:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a novel approach with a motor imagery-based exercise program versus conventional rehabilitative approach in fibromyalgia syndrome (FM): reduction of pain was set as the primary outcome.
Detailed Description:
Evidence about the therapeutic efficacy of exercise intervention programs in FM is still low and many authors suggested improving standardized exercise prescription for FM to achieve optimal results. In the literature, as an alternative approach, rehabilitative protocols in Group Music and Imagery seem to improve well-being and reduce anxiety in women with FM and suggest that Music and Imagery may help diminish pain intensity and depression. A rehabilitative approach should also consider the psychological and emotional aspects and, when possible, be accompanied by cognitive-behavioral therapy. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the possible efficacy of a novel approach with a motor imagery-based exercise program versus conventional rehabilitative approach in FM syndrome: the reduction of pain was set as the primary outcome as well as taking into account the patient's psychological and emotional condition. This study was designed as a double-blind, randomized, controlled trial.
