“…From the above reference, it can be theorised that Hippocrates and his contemporaries were aware of the analgesic properties of deep friction. The correctness of this theory is verified by modern research findings according to which massage increases local blood flow, relaxes muscles and further mobilizes and breaks down the scar tissue [ 24 ]. In particular, the local friction succeeds in increasing the local temperature and contributes to better blood flow, due to induced vasodilation and increased permeability of blood vessels.…”

The aim of this research was to analyse the use of olive oil as a means of prevention and treatment of sports injuries in the ancient world. The method adopted was based on a thorough study of Greek and world literature. Writings of major ancient philosophers and physicians such as Hippocrates, Aristotle, Philostratus, and Lucian have been analysed in depth. According to the results, the use of massage, together with olive oil rub, helped to reduce muscle fatigue, to remove lactic acid, and to prevent the occurrence of sports injuries through flexibility provided to the skin of athletes. The therapeutic use of oil in the ancient world was fully recognized; and as a result Athenian athlothetes (sponsors of sporting events) provided free oil to all sport facilities where athletes could make free use of it [1].

ÖZETAnkilozan Spondilit (AS), özellikle vertebral kolonda inflamasyonla karekterize seronegatif spondiloartropati grubunun prototipi olan kronik, sistemik romatizmal bir hastalıktır. Bu hastalık, kalıtsal bir hastalıktır ve tedavisi yoktur. Sadece hastaların yaşam kalitelerini arttırmaya yönelik ilaç ve egzersiz tedavisi önerilir. İlaç tedavisi kadar egzersiz tedavisine önem verilmemektedir ya da egzersiz tedavisi kısıtlı yapılmaktadır. Bu hastalığın tedavisi ile ilgili olarak literatür incelendiğinde; ilaç tedavisi kadar egzersiz tedavisinin de önemi vurgulanmaktadır. Bu makalede, ankilozan spondilit tedavisinde egzersizin önemi tartışılmış ve güncel literatür gözden geçirilmiştir.Anahtar Kelimeler: Ankilozan Spondilit, Germe Egzersizi, Aerobik Egzersiz, Solunum Egzersizi. THE IMPORTANCE OF EXERCISE IN TREATMENT OF ANKYLOSING SPONDYLITIS ABSTRACTAnkylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a chronic, systemic, rheumatic disease that is a prototype of seronegative spondyloarthopathies characterized by inflammation, especially at the spinal column. This disease is hereditary and cannot be treated. The only suggested treatments of which are exercise and drug are for increasing the quality of life in people with AS. The exercise is not considered as important as the drug treatment or the exercise treatment is limited. A growing body of research reveals that exercise is as crucial as drug treatment in the management of AS. In this article, the importance of exercise in treatment of ankylosing spondylitis is discussed with the evaluation of current literature.
