Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of our study is to compare the effects of face-to-face and internet-based BBAT in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome.
H0: Face-to-face and internet-based BBAT have superiority over each other in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome.
H1: In patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome, face-to-face and internet-based BBAT have no superiority over each other.
Detailed Description
The aim of our study is to compare the effects of face-to-face and internet-based BBAT in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome. H0: Face-to-face and internet-based BBAT have superiority over each other in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome. H1: In patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome, face-to-face and internet-based BBAT have no superiority over each other. Goals: 1. Investigation of the effects of face-to-face and internet-based BBAT on functional disability, pressure pain threshold, body awareness, posture, pain intensity, trunk position sense, postural control, balance, sleep quality, quality of life and inflammation level in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome. 2. Comparison of the effects of face-to-face and internet-based BBAT on functional disability, pressure pain threshold, body awareness, posture, pain intensity, trunk position sense, postural control, balance, sleep quality, quality of life and inflammation level in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome
