About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) is a nonarticular, chronic rheumatic disorder of unknown etiology characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, impaired sleep quality, fatigue and the presence of identified tender points. Pain, the main symptom of the disease, is described as chronic and widespread. It is reported that the pain usually starts in the neck and shoulders but becomes widespread by being felt in various parts of the body during the day. Although it is difficult to localize the pain, it is reported to be localized to the paracervical and trapezius muscle and paralumbar and gluteal body parts.

Cognitive Exercise Therapy Approach is an innovative exercise approach developed on the basis of biopsychosocial model on individuals with rheumatism. This method has a unique scale that offers biopsychosocial assessment. There is the Cognitive Exercise Therapy Approach-Biopsychosocial Questionnaire (BETY-BQ). Validity, reliability and sensitivity studies of BETY-BQ have been conducted in individuals with fibromyalgia. This study aims to examine the effect of BETY, an exercise approach developed on the basis of the biopsychosocial model, on individuals with fibromyalgia.
