Abdominal exercises for crohn's disease symptoms
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a specific set of abdominal exercises can help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms in people with Crohn's disease. You'll do the exercises at home daily, and the study will track your results over time to see if it's a helpful addition to your usual care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have Crohn's disease with mild to moderate symptoms (doctors use a score between 4 and 15).
- Your Crohn's is active — either a fecal calprotectin test above 150 or ultrasound shows some inflammation.
- You are either on a stable medication plan or no medication. If you recently stopped, there are waiting periods (e.g., 2 weeks for steroids or 5ASA, 8 weeks for biologics).
- You can commit to doing 10-15 minutes of abdominal exercises 6 times a week.
- You can use a computer and the internet.
- You don't have certain exclusions like active infections, recent surgery, or other serious conditions.

This study looks at muscle strength and muscle mass in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. It aims to understand how IBD affects muscles, which can help improve patient care.
This trial compares two types of MRI scans to see how well they detect inflammation in the small intestine of people with Crohn's disease. It aims to find the best way to assess disease activity without invasive procedures.
This study uses ultrasound to measure how much damage Crohn's disease has caused in your intestines, which may help doctors track the disease without repeated scans or procedures.
This trial tests a new infrared light treatment to see if it can reduce inflammation and symptoms in people with Crohn's disease. It's for those who have active disease despite current treatments or who are not on therapy.
This study tests whether a personalized aerobic exercise program (like walking or cycling) can help people with mild or inactive Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis feel better. It lasts 12 weeks and is designed for people who don't currently exercise regularly.
This study looks at whether a moderate exercise program can help people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) feel better and manage their condition. It aims to see if exercise improves overall health without worsening symptoms.
