Summary

Multiple sclerosis is a progressive neurological disease that associated with demyelinization and axonal damage. Decreased postural control is one of the initial symptom of disease. Improving postural control in people with neurological impairment is a common goal of physiotherapy. Doing exercises in water or land are examples for effective solutions. Pilates and aquaplyometric exercises are some of these approaches. Performing daily activities at the same time requires dual tasking or multi tasking. Dual tasking is frequently impaired in MS. The aim of the study was to determine effect of combined Pilates and Aquaplyometric exercises on postural control with or without dual task in patients with multiple sclerosis.
