Cognitive Exercise Therapy Approach (BETY)

BETY, based on function-oriented core stabilization exercises, will be applied in patients with systemic sclerosis. This exercise model includes pain management strategies, dance therapy-authentic movement. Function-oriented core stabilization exercises have the feature of being made difficult against gravity according to the person's ability to do. Initial exercises start from the stage where the distal segment of the extremity is on the ground, called closed-kinetic. This level, which is quite easy, becomes more difficult following the success of the individual. It can be started from the mat level and progressed by modifying it with theraband and exercise ball. It is used at the beginning and end of dance therapy and authentic movement sessions. In the session, cognitive restructuring technique is used to break the vicious cycle of pain-emotional-spasm during exercise. This exercise model is the main rehabilitation approach of the Rheumatological Rehabilitation Unit.
