Abstract [en]

Effective interventions are needed to reduce mental health pro-blems for adolescent girls.Method: A total of 112 girls 13 –18 years old with stress-related mental health problems were randomized; 59 to dance group, 53 to control group. The in-tervention comprised dance twice weekly for 8 months.Results: Participants in dance reduced somatic and emotional problems and improved self-rated health significantly more than the control group. The in-tervention was cost-effective due to low costs and a reduction of school-nur-se visits. The dance was experienced as an oasis from stress and increased embodied self-trust.Discussion: The method “Dance for Health” is now being implemented in Sweden as a complement to usual care in school healthcare, in child- and adolescent psychiatry and in primary care.

Abstract [sv]

Effektiva insatser efterfrågas för att minska psykisk ohälsa bland tonårsflickor. Metod: Totalt inkluderades 112 flickor 13–18 år med symtom på psykisk ohäl-sa; 59 randomiserades till dansgrupp, 53 till kontrollgrupp. Interventions-gruppen erbjöds kravlös dans med fokus på rörelseglädje 2 gr/v i 8 månader.Resultat: Deltagare i dansintervention minskade emotionella och somatiska symtom samt ökade sin självskattade hälsa signifikant mer än kontrollgrup-pen. Insatsen var hälsoekonomiskt effektiv p.g.a. låga omkostnader och minskat antal skolsköterskebesök. Dansen beskrevs som en oas från stres-sande upplevda krav, och gav stärkt kroppsbaserad självtillit.Diskussion: Intervention med dans kan generera hälsoeffekter för tonårs-flickor. Metoden ”Dans för Hälsa” implementeras nu i Sverige som komple-ment till sedvanlig vård. Främst inom elevhälsa, men även inom barn- och ungdomspsykiatri och primärvård.
