“…The applicability of the PM has been recognized in the literature and demonstrated in some pathological conditions. Rego et al [21] improved the health status, pain and functionality of older adult women with Osteoarthritis (KOA) in 18 patients with knee (KOA) based on the Mat Pilates concept, according to an appropriate methodological quality; in diabetics type I [22,23] and type II [24]; in multiple sclerosis to improve balance [25]; in pregnant women [26]; on lung function [27], in hemodialysis patients [28]; after stroke [29]; on functional capacity in the elderly [30].…”

Complementary and alternative therapies to promote health and quality of life such as yoga, the Pilates Method (PM), and whole-body vibration therapy (WBV). The effects of WBV at various frequencies have been studied in osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, diabetes, sedentary older women, metabolic syndrome, patellofemoral pain, overweight and obesity, systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, Down syndrome, and Parkinson's disease, among others. PM is also recognized in other pathological conditions, such as diabetics (II), osteoarthritis, multiple sclerosis to improve balance, pregnant women, lung function, hemodialysis patients, after stroke, and the elderly. Yoga also already plays an important role in the lives of people with various disabilities, contributing to the quality of life and functional independence of the population. Its effects on cognition and mental health of the elderly, on the quality of life and depression of elderly breast cancer patients, on respiratory function, symptom control and quality of life of asthma patients, in schizophrenic patients, on cardiac autonomic balance in patients with refractory epilepsy, on cardiovascular disease risk factors, in the treatment of vasovagal syncope, in the modulation of stress, on stress hormone levels, activities of daily living, falls and physical fitness, and in chronic pain. In the context of the COVID -19 pandemic, yoga may improve mental health status, immunity to viral infections, systemic health parameters, quality of life, and/or survival in patients with comorbidities when the intervention is delivered at moderate intensity with synchronous and asynchronous technology at home in working adults. In this sense, we seek to provide alternative therapeutic methods that can complement current therapies.
