Detailed Description

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

The patients included in the study were randomly divided into two as Thoracic Mobilization Group and Control Group and will be included in the treatment programs after the initial evaluations. Patients in both groups will receive a treatment of 11 sessions in total, 5 sessions per week. Participants will be evaluated twice before and after treatment with the Fibromyalgia impact questionnaire, Beck anxiety and Beck depression questionnaires. In addition, the E-motion Faros device will be used to measure heart rate variability. Measurements of heart rate variables will be made before and after the first day of treatment, before and after the 11th session, and on the 45th day.
