Abstract:   (1072 Views)
Patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) face challenges associated with their physical aspects. The study's main goal was to evaluate the effect of six-week pilates training with music on balance and the quality of life in multiple sclerosis patients. The study's sample size consisted of 29 women diagnosed with MS, ranging in age from 20 to 30 years old, and with a disability level between 2-5, who were grouped based on their strength test results. The participants were divided into three groups. The initial test group conducted Pilates workouts for a duration of six weeks. Every workout consisted of three components: a warm-up period lasting 10 to 15 minutes, a 35 to 40-minute Pilates exercise session, and a 10-minute cooldown to return to the initial state. The patients in the second experimental group exercised with music, while the control group only performed their daily activities. The initial test group engaged in Pilates workouts for six weeks. Every workout was split into three sections: starting with a warm-up lasting 10-15 minutes, followed by Pilates exercises for 35-40 minutes, and finishing with a cool down for 10 minutes. The second group in the experiment did the workouts with music, while the control group just carried out their usual daily activities throughout the exercise session. Next, the participants underwent a post-test utilizing the tool that was referenced. ANCOVA and LSD post hoc analysis were conducted to evaluate group differences and determine statistical significance (p<0.05). According to the statistical analysis, there were significant differences in the components of static and dynamic balance and the quality of life between the experimental and control groups. Furthermore, there was no notable distinction in the results between the Pilates workout regimen with music and without music. However, Pilates without music outperformed in all three aspects. In general, the quality of Pilates exercises was regarded as significantly necessary during the Pilates exercises program with music, and precision should be required when using music appropriately to increase effect.
