Effectiveness of Dance Therapy in Fibromyalgia.

Effectiveness of a Exercise Program Based on Dance Therapy in Fibromyalgia: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of an intervention with dance on balance,movility, pain and sleep in patients with Fibromyalgia in comparison to a control group that will have an educational intervention.

Fibromyalgia is a chronic disease consisting of widespread pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, and cognitive impairments, among other symptoms, which affect daily physical activity. The regular physical exercise improves the functional, physiological, and behavioral components of physical fitness. Dance therapy seems to increase motivation and adherence to therapy, and can provide a real alternative to conventional exercise The experimental group will receive a dance program treatment . The control group will receive an educational intervention.

The experimental group will receive a dance treatment.This protocol will be administered at weekly sessions of 60 minutes with a period of 2 times / week with a total of 16 sessions, distributed over a 8-week period. They will be evaluated at baseline, after the end of the last treatment session.

The control group will receive an educational intervention. They will be evaluated at baseline, after the end of the last treatment session.

Change from de baseline in functional mobility and predict risk of falls. The single-task subscale consists of a measurement of the time in seconds for the patient to rise from sitting in a standard arm chair, walk 3 meters, turn, walk back to the chair, and sit down. The dual task subscale adds a cognitive task (TUGCognitive) or a manual task (TUGManual) to the simple task.

Change from de baseline in postural steadiness (static balance) in a static position by registering the number of seconds a person can maintain this position.

Change from the baseline on the impact of symptoms on quality of life in people with fibromyalgia. Questionnaire with 21-items on a visual analogue scale.

Change from the baseline on the severity of general disability in the items of work, family life/home responsibilities and social life/leisure activities.

change from the baseline on sleep quality. The self-rated items of the PSQI generate seven component scores (with subscales ranged 0-3): sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, habitual sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance, use of sleeping medication, and daytime dysfunction.

Change from the baseline on physical disability related to activities of eight categories of daily living over the last week.

Change from baseline in Dynamic Balance: areas are anticipatory postural adjustments, reactive postural responses, sensory orientation, and stability in gait. This tool has 14 items, with a maximum score of 28 points.

Inclusion Criteria: Being over 18 years of age until 64. Being diagnosed with FMS in accordance with American College of Rheumatology - ACR Exclusion Criteria: Participants with diagnoses of other inflammatory rheumatic diseases, previous neurological or orthopedic diseases, Use aids for balance, hearing and visual problems. Cognitive impairment.
