Description

Cristina Bravo and colleagues reviewed movement awareness therapies for eating disorders in 2024. Care for eating disorders often needs a broad, team-based approach. Movement and body awareness therapies aim to help patients reconnect with their bodies. The team searched health databases for randomized trials of these therapies.

Eleven articles with 437 patients met the review rules. The therapies included yoga, dance, body awareness therapy, and psychomotor therapy. No high-quality trials were found among them. Results hinted at small gains in areas such as emotion control and self-compassion. Gains also appeared for anxiety, body attitude, and quality of life. The authors stress that stronger trials are still needed.
