A randomized clinical trial by the Neurology Department Movement Disorders Unit at the Virgen del Rocío University Hospital and the Movement Disorders group of the Institute of Biomedicine of Seville - IBiS, in collaboration with researchers from the Mental Health Clinical Management Unit and the Translational Psychiatry group, demonstrated that a multidisciplinary approach integrating specific physiotherapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy effectively improves symptoms and physical aspects of quality of life in patients with functional movement disorders.

A randomized clinical trial published in JAMA Neurology shows that integrating physiotherapy and cognitive-behavioral therapy improves symptoms and quality of life in patients with functional movement disorders, suggesting potential cost-effectiveness in healthcare.
