Physical exercise training

...

A variety of physical exercises (e.g. aerobic or strengthening exercises, balance or coordination exercises, mind–body exercises), with or without weight-bearing, are suitable to improve exercise capacity, muscle strength, joint mobility, voluntary movement, balance, gait and walking, as well as helping to reduce pain and fatigue. Regular physical exercise training (including education and advice on exercises) is planned according to an individual’s needs, guided or assisted and, if feasible, performed self-directed following education and advice on the appropriate exercises. Physical exercise training has proven effective for management of stress and mental health and also for motor functions and mobility.
