Brief Summary:
This prospective intervention study evaluates whether health education and basic body awareness training reduces health care consumption and improves movement quality among refugees in Sweden.
Detailed Description:
Migration is well known to be stressful and to have a negative impact on Health. Multidisciplinary health-promoting group interventions have significantly improved self-rated health. Further, symptom improvement was shown after implementation of physical activity in form of basic body awareness training. In this study a multimodal team consisted of a physiotherapist, nurse, psychologist, dietician, and physician held sessions of three hours weekly for a period of nine weeks. The sessions started with basic body awareness training, followed by theme discussions on symptoms and health strategies. A total of 54 participants completed the intervention. Health care consumption and movement quality were measured before and after the intervention.
