Engelli Kadınlar İçin Yoga Tabanlı Rehabilitasyon Eğilimleri

Öz

Bu çalışma, engelli kadınlar için bir rehabilitasyon aracı olarak yogaya ilişkin küresel araştırma eğilimlerini analiz etmeyi, bunun fiziksel, zihinsel ve sosyal iyilik hali üzerindeki etkisini vurgulamayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırma, alandaki tematik alanları, başlıca katkı sağlayanları ve coğrafi dağılımları inceleyerek boşlukları ve gelecekteki fırsatları belirlemektedir. 1975-2023 yılları arasında yayımlanan ilgili çalışmaları belirlemek için Web of Science veri tabanı kullanılarak bibliyometrik analiz yapılmıştır. Arama, "disability women", "disability female" ve "yoga" anahtar kelimelerini içermektedir. Tematik odak, yazarlık, atıflar ve iş birliği ağları açısından toplam 116 hakemli yayın analiz edilmiştir. VOSviewer yazılımı kullanılarak literatürdeki temel eğilimler ve ilişkiler haritalanmıştır. Bulgular, yoganın engelli kadınlar için rehabilitasyon sürecine önemli katkılar sağladığını; fiziksel hareketlilik, kronik ağrı yönetimi ve ruh sağlığını iyileştirme konularında etkili olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, Hindistan ve Almanya, en fazla katkı sağlayan ülkeler olarak öne çıkmıştır; çalışmaların çoğu yaşam kalitesi, rehabilitasyon uygulamaları ve ruh sağlığı etkilerine odaklanmaktadır. Yoga, engelli kadınlar için çok boyutlu faydalar sunan etkili bir rehabilitasyon stratejisi olarak hizmet etmektedir. Bu çalışma, kapsayıcı, küresel araştırmalara olan ihtiyacı vurgulamakta ve yoganın rehabilitasyon politikaları ile uygulamalarını geliştirme potansiyeline dikkat çekmektedir. Bulgular, engellilik ve rehabilitasyon bilimleri alanındaki uygulayıcılar, politika yapıcılar ve araştırmacılar için uygulanabilir içgörüler sunmaktadır.

Trends in Yoga-Based Rehabilitation for Women with Disabilities

Öz

This study aims to analyze global research trends on yoga as a rehabilitation tool for women with disabilities, highlighting its impact on physical, mental, and social well-being. The research explores thematic areas, key contributors, and geographical distributions within the field to identify gaps and future opportunities. A bibliometric analysis was conducted using the Web of Science database to identify relevant studies published up to 1975-2023. The search included the keywords "disability women","disability female" and "yoga". A total of 116 peer-reviewed publications were analyzed for thematic focus, authorship, attributions, and collaboration networks. Data were visualized using VOSviewer software to map key trends and relationships within the literature. Findings reveal that yoga significantly contributes to the rehabilitation process for women with disabilities, improving physical mobility, chronic pain management, and mental health. The United States, India, and Germany emerged as leading contributors, with most studies emphasizing quality of life, rehabilitation practices, and mental health impacts. Yoga serves as an effective rehabilitation strategy for women with disabilities, offering multidimensional benefits. This study underscores the need for inclusive, global research and highlights yoga’s potential for improving rehabilitation policies and practices. The findings provide actionable insights for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers in disability and rehabilitation sciences.
