Summary:
Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a type of arthritis that affects the spine and Norwegian researchers have shown exercise programs
benefit people afflicted with this condition.
The University of Olso researchers reviewed 43 studies involving exercise and AS for 561 patients that used a variety of exercise
intervention programs to treat their condition.
Increased patient assessment of improvement, increased spinal mobility and decreased pain were reported by patients following exercise
programs.
Conclusion: Patients were most improved when supervised programs were adhered to, but an exact exercise program protocol cannot be
determined by the study results.
