Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Fibromiyalgia group
women with FMS between 18-65 years of age and being volunteered.
Trunk position sense will be evaluated with a digital inclinometer. Trunk reposition test will be used in evaluation.The postural stability will be evaluated with a special balance device in eyes opened and closed position. Ellipse area (mm2) and perimeter (mm) parameters will be recorded.The angles of thoracal kyphosis and lumbar lordosis will be evaluated with a digital inclinometer.
Healthy group
healthy women and being volunteereed
