Resumo
Introdução: O Método Pilates proporciona diferentes benefícios como consciência corporal, coordenação motora, alinhamento postural, diminuindo gasto de energia objetivando a globalidade dos movimentos.¹. O envelhecimento biológico humano é progressivo e dinâmico, envolve mudanças involutivas no corpo, morfológicas e funcionais no organismo que levam a limitações e disfunções afetando a maioria dos órgãos, levando ao declínio evidenciado das adaptações homeostáticas.3 O risco de quedas poderá ser reduzido através de programa de exercícios específicos. A estimulação sensorial é estimulada pela atividade física contribuindo para melhorar a neuroplasticidade.². O Método Pilates quando empregado na população idosa melhora a mobilidade e a força, proporcionando benefícios na calcificação óssea e na pressão arterial juntamente ao uso de medicações apropriadas à prática de atividades físicas. 4.
Objetivo: Verificar, através de revisão bibliográfica integrativa, a eficácia do Método Pilates na prevenção ao risco de quedas em idosos.
Resultados: Verificou-se que os estudos selecionados nesta revisão seguiram uma padronização da técnica do Método Pilates e protocolo de terapia, em virtude de proporem exercícos de integração corporal, flexibilidade, resistência força e equilibrio, beneficiando alinhamento postural, coordenação motora, consciência corporal, visando a globalidade de movimentos prevenindo, desta forma, a queda em idosos.
Conclusão: Conclui-se que os benefícios que a atividade física proporciona ao idoso são encontrados comumente em vários estudos que demostram resultados positivos na melhora da qualidade de vida, bem-estar psicológico, diminuindo os índices de depressão e melhora do desempenho nas atividades de vida diária e a melhora na força muscular, flexibilidade, agilidade, mobilidade, resistência e prevenção de doenças crônicas. 1 Acredita-se serem necessários mais estudos referentes ao tema obtendo assim maiores resultados e avanços na área da saúde do idoso.
Introduction: The Pilates Method provides different benefits such as body awareness, motor coordination, postural alignment, reducing energy expenditure, aiming at the globality of movements.¹. Human biological aging is progressive and dynamic, involving involutive changes in the body, morphological and functional in the organism that lead to limitations and dysfunctions affecting most organs, leading to the evidenced decline of homeostatic adaptations.3 The risk of falls can be reduced through specific exercise program. Sensory stimulation is stimulated by physical activity, contributing to improve neuroplasticity.². The Pilates Method, when used in the elderly population, improves mobility and strength, providing benefits in terms of bone calcification and blood pressure, together with the use of appropriate medications for the practice of physical activities. 4. Objective: To verify, through an integrative bibliographical review, the effectiveness of the Pilates Method in preventing the risk of falls in the elderly. Results: It was found that the studies selected in this review followed a standardization of the Pilates Method technique and therapy protocol, as they proposed exercises for body integration, flexibility, resistance, strength and balance, benefiting postural alignment, motor coordination, body awareness, aiming at the globality of movements. Conclusion: It is concluded that the benefits that physical activity provides to the elderly are commonly found in several studies that demonstrate positive results in improving quality of life, psychological well-being, reducing depression rates and improving performance in activities of living daily and improvement in muscle strength, flexibility, agility, mobility, resistance and prevention of chronic diseases. 1 It is believed that more studies on the subject are needed, thus obtaining greater results and advances in the area of elderly health.
