@article {66, title = {Awareness Through Movement Sequence on Fibromyalgia Patients}, journal = {Feldenkrais Research Journal}, volume = {4}, year = {2008}, publisher = {IFF Academy}, chapter = {10}, abstract = {The purpose of this study was to describe the effects of a Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement (ATM) sequence on fibromyalgia patients. Subjects met twice a week for a one hour group ATM lesson, and were instructed to follow through daily with practice tapes: After two months, subjects were placed on a one month home program. Pre-test and post-test data, which included a modified Fibromyalgia Impact Assessment (FIA) questionnaire, a pain scale, photographical postural analysis, and observational video analysis of walking, were collected and analyzed on five fibromyalgia patients. A paired t-Test on the modified FIA and other descriptive analyses showed moderate improvement in the subjects. It was concluded that the Feldenkrais Method has potential value as a possible adjunct to the physical therapy treatment of selected fibromyalgia patients. }, issn = {1817-4000}, attachments = {http://iffresearchjournal.org/de/system/files/APPENDIX\%20A.pdf , http://iffresearchjournal.org/de/system/files/APPENDIX\%20B.pdf , http://iffresearchjournal.org/de/system/files/Appendix\%20C_0.jpg , http://iffresearchjournal.org/de/system/files/APPENDIX\%20D.pdf , http://iffresearchjournal.org/de/system/files/Appendix\%20E-image_0.jpg , http://iffresearchjournal.org/de/system/files/APPENDIX\%20E.pdf , http://iffresearchjournal.org/de/system/files/APPENDIX\%20F.pdf}, author = {Julie R.
