NCT ID NCT07736599
First seen Jul 30, 2026 · Last updated Aug 04, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This trial tests whether a 10-week Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) program can improve quality of life, reduce pain and work-related stress, and influence eating attitudes in healthy adults aged 25–55 who work at a university. Twenty participants are randomly assigned to either weekly group BBAT sessions or no intervention. Researchers measure changes using pain scales, stress questionnaires, and quality-of-life surveys, and also collect participants' written reflections to understand their experience.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) — a 10-week, once-weekly, 60-minute group-based movement awareness therapy program
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a simple, non-drug approach to improve well-being and reduce stress in healthy working adults.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small pilot study with only 20 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The therapy is subjective and relies on self-reported measures.
