What this Trial Is About
Crohns disease is a long-term inflammatory condition affecting the digestive system, causing symptoms like abdominal pain, diarrhea, and fatigue. People with Crohns often experience a lower quality of life and require long-term treatment that can have side effects. Researchers are exploring new ways to improve health-related quality of life HRQoL and symptom control, including whole body vibration exercise as a potential option. This trial studies a supervised 6-week whole body vibration exercise program for adults with mild to moderately active Crohns disease. Participants in the exercise group will train three times per week for 10 minutes on a vibrating plate, alongside a lifestyle education program. The study has a randomized design comparing this exercise program to a control group with no intervention. During the study, participants will attend assessment visits at the research center and complete various questionnaires. Researchers will measure changes in quality of life, disease activity, fatigue, anxiety, depression, pain, fitness, and several inflammatory markers from baseline to 6 weeks. The study aims to understand the effects of this exercise on symptoms and overall well-being in Crohns disease.
