Abstract

The effect of 8 weeks of Pilates exercises on pain change and kyphosis angle in women's health in Tehran's second district

Abstract
Pilates largely avoids high impact, high power output, and heavy muscular and skeletal loading. Pilates largely avoids high impact, high power output, and heavy muscular and skeletal loading. The aim of this study was the effect of Pilates exercises on pain and kyphosis angle on the health of 30 young women in the second district of Tehran with an age range of 20 to 50 years with mild kyphosis. The studied samples were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the study, as well as through objective observation, kyphometer, pain ruler, checkerboard. Mackenzie, Williams exercises and special exercises for the back muscles (lying down) have also been used. Data analysis was performed by descriptive statistics, inferential statistics, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, analysis of covariance, using SPSS software version 26. The results showed that the level of significance for the distribution of variables is normal and Pilates exercises are effective in changing the angle of kyphosis, reducing pain in women 20 to 50 years old. The results showed that using Pilates exercises on the muscles of the abdomen, back and spine caused a change in the angle of kyphosis, thus the support area of kyphosis is also treated. Pilates largely avoids high impact, high power output, and heavy muscular and skeletal loading. Pilates largely avoids high impact, high power output, and heavy muscular and skeletal loading.
