Summary

This study looked at whether mat Pilates or reformer Pilates can help people with multiple sclerosis (MS) with balance, walking, and posture. Thirty adults with mild to moderate MS were randomly assigned to one of two Pilates programs or a control group. Both Pilates groups trained twice a week for eight weeks. Researchers measured balance, walking patterns, and core strength before and after the training to see if Pilates made a difference.
