Summary

Knee flexor and extensor muscle weakness in MS patients causes a decrease in walking distance and is an important determinant of walking capacity. Exercise training has beneficial effects on muscle strength, balance, and walking in MS patients. Although the effects of aerobic and resistant exercise training in MS patients are often emphasized, today the effect of different exercise types is also wondered. Pilates is a core stability-based exercise method that improves endurance, flexibility, movement, posture, and respiratory control. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Pilates training on sensation, muscle strength, balance, and walking in MS patients.
