Earthquake survivors test simple therapy for better balance and core strength

This study looked at whether a gentle therapy called basic body awareness therapy can help earthquake survivors improve their core muscle endurance, posture, balance, quality of life, and body awareness. Thirty adults aged 18-45 who lived through the February 2023 earthquakes in Turkey took part. Half received the therapy for 8 weeks, while the other half did not. The goal was to see if this approach could address physical issues often overlooked after such disasters.
