Water aerobics plus thinking-skills training for psychosis
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether combining water aerobics with a structured “thinking-skills” program (metacognitive training) can improve symptoms and day-to-day functioning for certain people with psychosis. It may help by improving how you relate to thoughts and feelings while also adding supportive group exercise.
