Abstract

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of postural multimodal training with combined use of muscle contraction modes for multiple sclerosis. A 41-year-old woman with very low physical activity and remmitting multiple sclerosis followed the proposed training program for 5 months, exercising mainly once a week and and several times two workouts (three weeks). The training program included exercises in an unstable standing posture, on an unstable object (bolster), strength exercises without additional weights for the lower and upper body. Postural balance testing was performed using the Berg scale and wall sit, also evaluated functional independence in moving up the stairs. The results shows of the effectiveness of the method for improving dynamic and static postural control, as well as increased functional performance in climbing and descending stairs. A combination (or hybrid) method using three modes of muscle contraction as a form of multimodal training may be recommended for individuals with multiple sclerosis in order to improve postural control.
