本研究的目的是评估患有纤维肌痛 (FM) 的女性在水池中进行有氧运动与在海上进行有氧运动的效果。共有46名患者被随机分为两组：泳池组（23名患者）和海上组（23名患者），进行相同的有氧运动计划。使用以下指标对患者进行基线和 12 周后评估：VAS、压痛点数量、FIQ、SF-36、PSQI 和 BDI。治疗后两组的所有评估变量均显着改善。除 BDI 外，两组之间没有显着差异（F = 2.418，P < 0.0001）。在水中（泳池或大海）进行的有氧运动计划对 FM 患者有效。然而，海水练习已被证明可以带来更多与情绪方面相关的优势。那么，海水运动（海水疗法）对于 FM 患者来说是一种低成本、有效治疗的选择。
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of aerobic exercise in water pool compared with aerobic exercise performed in sea by women with fibromyalgia (FM). A total of 46 patients were randomly allocated into two groups: pool group (23 patients) and sea group (23 patients) that performed the same aerobic exercise program. Patients were evaluated baseline and after 12 weeks using: VAS, number of tender points, FIQ, SF-36, PSQI, and BDI. Both groups improved significantly in post-treatment for all the evaluated variables. There were no significant differences between two groups, except for BDI (F = 2.418, P < 0.0001). Aerobic exercise program performed in water (pool or sea) was effective for patients with FM. However, sea water exercises have been shown to bring more advantages related to emotional aspects. Then, exercise performed sea water (thalassotherapy) is an option for effective treatment with low cost for patients with FM.
