Interventions

OTHER

Multidisciplinary group treatment

Multidisciplinary group intervention at the University Hospital of North Norway. The group intervention is led by physiotherapists, with contributions from a gynecologist, nutritionist and a peer patient. The treatment consists of active exercises and theory lessons. The focus is to enhance the participants body awareness and to recognize the integration of mental and physical processes. The aim is to create change in patterns that influence the participants health negatively. The treatment lasts one year. The first meeting has a duration of 10 days, then follow-up after 3, 6 and 12 months.

OTHER

Standard physiotherapy treatment
