Sponsor: Istanbul Rumeli University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effects of craniosacral therapy on pain, body awareness, depression, and quality of life in primary caregivers of individuals with special needs. Primary caregivers often experience physical and psychological burden due to long-term caregiving responsibilities. Craniosacral therapy is a non-pharmacological, manual therapy approach that may help reduce pain, improve body awareness, and support overall well-being. In this study, eligible primary caregivers will be assigned to either a craniosacral therapy group or a control group. The intervention group will receive craniosacral therapy sessions, while the control group will receive no therapeutic intervention during the study period. Outcome measures related to pain, body awareness, depression, and quality of life will be assessed before and after the intervention. The results of this study may contribute to a better understanding of the potential benefits of craniosacral therapy for improving the physical and psychosocial health of primary caregivers of individuals with special needs.
