Introduction[edit | edit source]

Neuropilates is the practice of pilates in people with neurological conditions.[1]

It combines the traditional principles of the Pilates exercise method (such as centring, concentration and control, breath awareness and flow) with neurological rehabilitation principles such as neuroplasticity and motor learning. [2]

It modifies the exercises based on each patient's needs. For example, it may use more functional positions, may increase repetitions (in line with repetitive task training of post-stroke [3]), and may use visualisation cues and motor imagery often [4]. [2]

Effects[edit | edit source]

Neuropilates is theorised to improve the following in people with neurological conditions through retraining low threshold activity of local muscles and decreasing over-active global muscles by The Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute (APPI®): [5]

Evidence[edit | edit source]

Multiple Sclerosis (MS)[edit | edit source]

Recent systematic reviews that investigated Pilates effects on the MS population concluded that Pilates can provide improvement of balance [6] gait, physical-functional capacities, and cognitive functions, [7] and also might reduce self-perceived fatigue [8]. However, findings are fairly limited for fatigue, quality of life, and psychiatric conditions such as depression or anxiety. [7] The superiority of Pilates compared to other interventions still needs further research. [8][6]

Stroke[edit | edit source]

According to a recent systematic review study[9], when prescribed for stroke survivors, pilates:

  • improves static and dynamic balance (moderate evidence),
  • improves cardio-pulmonary parameters such as resting heart rate, VO2 max and VO2 max per kg (limited evidence),
  • may increase gait speed when compared with conventional physiotherapy (limited evidence).
