Abstract:Background: Body image dissatisfaction (BID) has garnered global attention. It is significantly correlated with the development of depression, anxiety, eating disorders (EDs) and low self-esteem. BID is increasingly common among adolescents and young women in China, whereas it lacks the effective treatment and prevention programs for BID. Objective: This paper expects to analyze the effective CAMs methods on improving BID, and based on the results, we put forward a feasible and effective study protocol to fill the gap of BID improvement among teenage girls. Methods: Fifty-two studies of CAM in 2015-2020 years in influencing body image and its correlates are collected and analyzed, and a study protocol combined “In Favor of Myself” is sent up. This study protocol adds praise, psychological counselling, nutrition education and yoga to the project “In Favor of Myself”, improving BID through group support, shifting attention from focusing on one’s physical appearance to enhancing one’s value, and alleviating pressure and emotions through yoga. Results: Many methods, such as fitness training, psychoeducation, nutritional therapy, music therapy, health promotion programs and internet-based interventions are considered the existing interventions to improve BID. Other CAMs, such as acupuncture, beauty care, Tai chi, and aromatherapy, could be tried in the improvement of BID in further studies. Conclusion: CAM is capable of subjectively changing feelings of bodies, adjusting their cognition of body image, enhancing the body-mind connection, improving self-esteem and relieving negative emotions, but the efficacy and mechanism of CAM working on BID still need more systematic and standardized research.
