RECRUITINGPain Severity
The pain of the participants will be evaluated with a 10 cm Visual Analog Scale before the treatment and at the end of the application. "0" means no pain, "10" means excruciating pain. Results will be recorded in cm.
Time frame: Baseline and immediately post-intervention
Motor Imagery
Motor imagery ability will be assessed using the Movement Imagery Questionnaire (MIQ). The questionnaire consists of items assessing visual imagery (clarity of the image) and kinesthetic imagery (intensity of the sensation). Each item is scored on a 7-point scale (1 = very hard to imagine, 7 = very easy to imagine). Subscale scores (visual and kinesthetic) and a total score will be calculated. Higher scores indicate better motor imagery ability.
Time frame: Baseline and immediately post-intervention
