An official website of the United States governmentMind and Body Clinical Trials Funding Opportunities
The following notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) focus on mind and body practices and target support of all phases of clinical intervention development. Mind and body practices, also called psychological and physical approaches, are a large and diverse group of procedures or techniques such as acupuncture, massage therapy, meditation, relaxation techniques, spinal manipulation, tai chi, and yoga.
The following categories are tied to the conceptual framework delineating the purpose of each stage of research. Investigation can be proposed at any stage along this continuum.
