New research presented at DDW 2024 reveals that combining cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with mindfulness techniques significantly improves the mental and physical well-being of patients with Crohn’s disease. In the study, participants using the COBMINDEX program experienced reduced disease activity and fatigue, with benefits persisting over time. This approach addresses both the psychological stress and lingering symptoms often seen in Crohn’s, even when inflammation is controlled. Could a focus on mental wellness and stress reduction hold the key to better long-term outcomes for Crohn’s patients?
