Timeline
Interventions
Individuals included will be offered a program based on three pillars: education, cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and therapeutic exercise. The therapeutic exercise component will be delivered in the form of exercise sessions to be performed independently by the individual at home using SWORD Phoenix. These programs will have a duration of between 8 and 12 weeks, according to the condition, following pre-defined protocols. These protocols can be adapted to the needs, performance and progress of each individual by their assigned physical therapist. Individuals will be asked to perform at least 3 exercise sessions per week, in different days, but will not be excluded in case of lower adherence. In addition to the exercises, the individuals will also have access to educational articles written by the clinical team, as well as to a CBT program delivered through a combination of written articles and pre-recorded audio sessions.
