Psychomotorická terapie v Belgii - evidence based přístup a doporučení pro terapii poruch nálad a úzkostných poruchy

Psychomotor therapy is defined as a therapeutic method making use of physical experience (patients' awareness of their bodies and bodily functions) and physical activity (which forms the basis of patients' contribution to their own therapy). Psychomotor therapists work with an evidence-based approach. Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is a set of strategies derived from systematic scientific research. In this chapter we present the results of the two most recent meta-analyses of physical activities for patients with mood disorders and anxiety disorders. We then specify the effects of physical activity on somatic co-morbidities in patients with mood disorders and anxiety disorders. In conclusion we formulate several evidence-based recommendations for psychomotor therapy.
