Özet

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of physiotherapy methods combined with respiratory and relaxation exercises on patients with major depression. This randomized, controlled trial included 42 patients with a sedentary lifestyle, comprising 21 males and 21 females with a mean age of 37.78±11.67 years (range, 20-60 years). The experimental (n: 22)and control groups (n: 20) were evaluated using the Beck Depression and Anxiety Score, Visual Analog Score, Patient Health Questionnaire-15, Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-Items, and Patient Health Questionnaire-9. In both the experimental group and control group, a statistically significant difference was found in all parameters over time, with greater improvements made in the experimental group than in the control group in all the parameters. A rehabilitation program combined with respiratory and relaxation exercises applied in addition to standard treatment, can obtain more successful outcomes in major depression treatment.
