Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this study will be to evaluate treatment using ET exercise and pain education in women with endometriosis to improve pain intensity.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A study will be carried out whose objective is to improve the intensity of pain in women with endometriosis through a program of therapeutic exercise and education in the neurophysiology of pain. Also as secondary variables will be observed: kinesiophobia, catastrophism and impression of global improvement with treatment.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Therapeutic Exercise AND Pain Neurophysiology Education

Therapeutic exercise:

Therapeutic exercise is the systematic and planned execution of posture movements and physical activities to correct or prevent alterations, improve or enhance physical functioning, prevent risk factors for solid and optimize overall health status.

Pain Neurophysiology Education:

Education in pain neurophysiology consists in describing to the patient the neurobiology and neurophysiology of his nervous system pain to improve the processing of it and diminish the threatening meaning of pain.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Therapeutic exercise AND pain neurophysiology education

Intervention Type OTHER

A program of therapeutic exercise and education in the neurophysiology of pain will be applied to the participants of the experimental group and talks on healthy habits to the placebo group participants.
