Effect of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization training using the inertial load of water on functional movement and postural sway in middle-aged women: a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Chronic stress and diseases occur more frequently in middle-aged compared to younger women and this is often the result of physical, psychological and socio-economic changes. These health consequences reduce lower body muscle mass and flexibility, leading to generalized impairments in functional movement and balance. Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) training using the inertial load of water is known for its positive impact on functional strength improvement and muscle stabilization.

Objective

This study aimed to determine the effect of DNS training using inertial water loads on functional movement and postural sway in middle-aged women.

Method

A sample of 24 middle-aged women participated in the study and were randomly divided into two groups: the
