CHICA, A. et al. Effects of a Spanish dance program on women with fibromyalgia. CPD [online]. 2019, vol.19, n.2, pp.52-69.  Epub 13-Jul-2020. ISSN 1989-5879.

The objective of this study was to analyze the effects of a Spanish dance program on symptomatic level, functional capacity, psychological variables and body composition in a sample of women with fibromyalgia. A total of 43 women aged 45 to 70 years participated in the study. The intervention was performed for 6 weeks and 12 sessions. An intra-subject design with pre and post-test measurements was used. The instruments used were the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS), the Trait Meta-Mood Scale-24 (TMMS-24), the Self-concept form 5 questionnaire (AF5), the Profile of Mood States questionnaire (POMS) and a bioimpediciometer Tanita® BC-601. The results showed positive effects after the program, with improvements in mood, psychic and somatic anxiety, as well as depression. Therefore, these interventions could help to soften the impact of fibromyalgia in people.
