“…Tai-Chi is based on continuous fluid movements involving a semi-squat posture that enables an individual’s bodyweight to be shifted from side to side [22, 23]. Concentric and eccentric muscle contractions performed in Tai-Chi can increase lower-limb muscle strength [7, 22].…”

Background To investigate whether a simplified and personalized Tai-Chi program could be beneficial for practitioners. A prospective quasi-experimental observer-blinded controlled trial was done in Beitou District of Taipei City. Methods Community-dwelling adults aged 65 and older without debilitating disease ( N = 50) participated the study. Those who were willing to participate in exercise program were assigned to individualized Tai-Chi (iTC) group ( n = 20), receiving iTC training for 8 weeks, and traditional Tai-Chi (tTC) group ( n = 15), receiving tTC training for 8 weeks. Those who were not willing to participate in exercise training were included in the control group ( n = 15). Functional balance tests, the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), timed up-and-go (TUG) test, functional-reach test, and measurement of lower-extremity muscle strength were conducted before and 8 weeks after the intervention. Results Significant improvements were noted in all functional balance tests and strength assessments of 16 major lower-limb muscle groups in participants of the iTC group compared to the control group, whereas only BBS and muscle strength of hips and ankles were improved in the tTC group. Practitioners of iTC outperformed tTC in BBS and strength of two major muscles. Conclusions Personalized Tai-Chi training designed based on an objective measurement and conducted according to graded intensity and complexity benefitted practitioners after a short period. Trial registration Trial registration number: ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03659396 , Unique Protocol ID: 1000087 Date of registration: 03/28/2017 The trial was registered retrospectively

“…(a) The intervention duration was too short for each Tai-Chi move to affect the knee muscles. Additionally, training was affected by the semi-squat posture of Tai-Chi, which induces stress on the knee muscles [23, 24]. (b) The full set of tTC exercises may have involved moves that were too difficult for the elderly participants.…”

“…Tai Chi is a form of Chinese gymnastic of high adherence among the elderly, which is capable of increasing the gains in fitness, strength and balance, and of preventing falls in this population 40,41 . The somato-psychic consequences of dizziness caused by vestibular disorders may include anguish, anxiety and panic attacks, fear of going out alone, interference with daily life activities and feelings of being out of reality, depersonalization and depressive humor 42 .…”

Objective: To summarize the results of clinical trials on vestibular rehabilitation (VR) in middle-aged and elderly people with vestibular disorders. Methods: A search for relevant trials was performed in the databases LILACS, EMBASE, MEDLINE, SciELO, Cochrane, ISI Web of Knowledge and virtual libraries of theses and dissertations. Randomized controlled trials published in the last 10 years and written in English, Portuguese or Spanish were included. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed by the PEDro scale.Results from the included studies were analyzed through a critical review of content. Results: Nine studies were included in the review.Four studies reported on participants aged over 40 years (middle-aged and elderly) and five studies consisted exclusively of elderly subjects (over 60 years). Findings of vestibular dysfunction were diverse and the most common complaints were body imbalance or postural instability (3 studies), and vertigo or dizziness (3 studies). The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was the most commonly used instrument to assess subjective perception of symptoms of vestibular dysfunction (4 studies). According to the PEDro scale, four studies were considered to be of good quality. The most common experimental intervention was the Cawthorne & Cooksey protocol (4 studies). For most outcome measures, the studies comparing VR with another type of intervention showed no differences between the groups after the therapy. Conclusions: The studies included in this review provide evidence for the positive effects of VR in elderly and middle-aged adults with vestibular disturbances.Key words: vestibular diseases; rehabilitation; older adults. ResumoObjetivo: Sistematizar os resultados de ensaios clínicos sobre reabilitação vestibular (RV) em indivíduos de meia-idade e idosos com distúrbios vestibulares. Métodos: A busca de publicações sobre a RV em indivíduos com distúrbios vestibulares foi realizada nas bases de dados LILACS, EMBASE, MEDLINE, SciELO, Cochrane, ISI Web of Knowledge e bibliotecas virtuais de teses e dissertações.Foram selecionados ensaios clínicos aleatórios e controlados dos últimos 10 anos em língua inglesa, portuguesa e espanhola. A qualidade metodológica dos estudos foi avaliada pela escala PEDro. A análise dos resultados dos estudos foi feita por meio de revisão crítica dos conteúdos. Resultados: Nove estudos foram revisados na íntegra, sendo a faixa etária dos participantes acima de 40 anos (n= 4) e composta exclusivamente por idosos (n=5). Os achados de disfunção vestibular foram diversificados, sendo os mais comuns queixa de desequilíbrio corporal ou instabilidade postural (n=3) e queixa de vertigem ou tontura (n=3). A Escala Visual Analógica (EVA) foi o instrumento mais utilizado para avaliar a percepção subjetiva da sintomatologia da disfunção vestibular (n=4). A escala PEDro revelou que quatro dos artigos apresentaram delineamento de boa qualidade para a condução do estudo experimental. A proposta de intervenção mais utilizada foi o protocolo de Cawthorne ...

Fisioter Mov. 2010 jul/set;23(3):409-17 ISSN 0103-5150 Fisioter. Mov., Curitiba, v. 23, n. 3, p. 409-417, jul./set. 2010 Licenciado ResumoObjetivo: Este estudo avaliou os efeitos da técnica de relaxamento aquático Ai Chi em um grupo de idosos, em relação ao equilíbrio, qualidade de vida e funcionalidade. Métodos: Foram selecionados 20 idosos de ambos os sexos, com média de idade de 68,95 (± 7,42) anos, que foram submetidas à técnica Ai Chi. Os idosos foram avaliados antes e depois do programa de exercícios, que teve duração de 12 semanas, com sessões de 45 minutos, duas vezes por semana, pelas seguintes escalas: Medida de Independência Funcional (MIF), que avalia a funcionalidade; Escala de Berg, que avalia o equilíbrio; e SF36, que mensura a qualidade de vida. Para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa, utilizamos uma piscina aquecida, numa temperatura de 33-34° C. Resultados: Houve melhora significante no equilíbrio pré e pós aplicação da técnica (p ≤ 0,003), não houve melhora significante em relação às medidas de independência funcional (p ≤ 0,10) e a qualidade de vida (p ≤ 0,38). Conclusão: A técnica de relaxamento aquático Ai Chi proporcionou melhora do equilíbrio, porém não houve mudanças em relação à qualidade de vida e à funcionalidade em idosos independentes.
