bodysymptoms.org: Postlaunch evaluation and update
Persistent physical symptoms (PPS) and functional somatic disorders present significant challenges to clinical communication. There is a lack of resources easily accessible in digital contexts that can support the development of therapeutic explanations and shared understandings. To address this problem bodysymptoms.org was launched in January 2024 as a multilingual, publicly accessible educational website designed to provide evidence-based, integrative explanations of PPS using a transdiagnostic, biopsychosocial framework. This report summarises the post-launch evaluation of bodysymptoms.org and outlines updates made in 2025.
