Basic Body Awareness Therapy

Basic body awareness therapy is a health oriented and person-centred approach with focus on the patient's resources. This is a method in physiotherapy, where we search to promote movement quality in daily life through self-exploration and self-experience.BBAT conceives the person from the biomechanical, physiological, bio-psycho-social and existential aspects, using the movement quality as a witness of the link in between all these perspectives.It can be done individually or in groups, through different daily life movements: lying, sitting, standing, walking, pair movements, use of voice and massages. BBAT has validated and reliable assesment tools, as BARS and BAS-I
