State of the Art - Interventions for Functional Abdominal Pain in Children and Adolescents
Workshop
Session Description
This workshop is designed to build on new advances in the treatment of pediatric functional abdominal pain disorders and contribute both with state of the art-overview of available treatments and their efficacy as well as a deepened presentation of both movement-based and psychological treatment approaches. Special attention will be given to how service providers across disciplines (physicians, mental health providers, etc.) can support youth in psychologically-minded ways. Dance and yoga with focus on enjoyment will be offered in the hands-on part of the workshop, which constitutes an example of a novel and resource-effective intervention that has shown pain-reliving effects for young girls with functional abdominal pain disorders.
