Overview
Brief Summary
Outpatients that suffer from different anxiety disorders may have physical ailments that negatively affect daily life functioning and quality of life. LOF is a physical therapy approach focusing on the link between bodily and mental balance and through defined, but simple movements, patients are expected to learn how to cope and reduce health complaints.
This study aims to investigate the short- and longterm effect of LOF compared to other standardized psychiatric treatments given in the clinic on levels of anxiety and depression, health related function and quality of life.
