Objective.
Patients with schizophrenia residing at institutions often suffer from negative symptoms, motor, and functional impairments more severe than their noninstitutionalized counterparts.
Tai-chi emphasizes body relaxation, alertness, and movement coordination with benefits to balance, focus, and stress relief.
This pilot study explored the efficacy of Tai-chi on movement coordination, negative symptoms, and functioning disabilities towards schizophrenia.
Methods.
A randomized waitlist control design was adopted, where participants were randomized to receive either the 6-week Tai-chi program and standard residential care or only the latter.
30 Chinese patients with schizophrenia were recruited from a rehabilitation residency.
All were assessed on movement coordination, negative symptoms, and functional disabilities at baseline, following intervention and 6 weeks after intervention.
Results.
Tai-chi buffered from deteriorations in movement coordination and interpersonal functioning, the latter with sustained effectiveness 6 weeks after the class was ended.
Controls showed marked deteriorations in those areas.
The Tai-chi group also experienced fewer disruptions to life activities at the 6-week maintenance.
There was no significant improvement in negative symptoms after Tai-chi.
Conclusions.
This study demonstrated encouraging benefits of Tai-chi in preventing deteriorations in movement coordination and interpersonal functioning for residential patients with schizophrenia.
The ease of implementation facilitates promotion at institutional psychiatric services.
