Sponsor's own description

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a mindfulness-based physical therapy intervention can reduce burnout syndrome and improve musculoskeletal pain and quality of life among undergraduate Allied Health Sciences students aged 18-30 years who are experiencing burnout symptoms, musculoskeletal pain, and reduced quality of life.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does a structured Mindfulness-Based Physical Therapy (MBPT) program reduce burnout symptoms compared to standard physical therapy alone?
* Does MBPT improve musculoskeletal pain and quality of life compared to standard physical therapy alone?

Researchers will compare a Mindfulness-Based Physical Therapy intervention group to a control group receiving a standardized physical therapy program to determine whether the addition of mindfulness techniques results in greater improvements in burnout, pain, and quality of life.

Participants will:

* Be randomly assigned to either the intervention or control group.
* Attend supervised 60-minute sessions three times per week for six weeks (total of 18 sessions).
* Receive a standardized baseline physical therapy program consisting of full-body active range of motion and general mobility exercises within pain-free limits.
* If assigned to the intervention group, receive structured mindfulness meditation, breathing exercises, posture correction, stretching, progressive muscle relaxation, and group reflection during each session.
* Complete 10-15 minutes of daily home mindfulness practice (intervention group only).
* Complete validated questionnaires at baseline and immediately after the 6-week intervention.
