Interventions

OTHER

Physiotherapy on the ground

Physical therapy will be performed on the ground, in 12 weeks, twice a week. The exercises will be based on a protocol developed by the researchers. This protocol has 15 exercises, aimed at muscle function and extensor musculature. All exercises can be adapted according to the severity of the individual, as well as the progression of these exercises will be made according to the adaptation and ease of individuals throughout the intervention.

OTHER

Aquatic physiotherapy

Aquatic physiotherapy will be performed in 12 weeks, twice a week, in shallow water. The exercises will be based on a protocol developed by the researchers. This protocol has 15 exercises, aimed at muscle function and extensor musculature. All exercises can be adapted according to the severity of the individual, as well as the progression of these exercises will be made according to the adaptation and ease of individuals throughout the intervention.
