Abstract
Background: To identify in the literature the exercise training therapies for females with fibromyalgia that may improve pain management and quality of life (QOL). Methods: A literature search was conducted in MEDLINE and PEDro databases for human studies up to June 2021. We considered studies if they investigated exercise therapies and their impact on pain, QOL, physical function, and mental health in female patients with fibromyalgia. Results: We identified 112 clinical trials. After posterior analyses, 15 articles were selected, and 8 were considered eligible. Conclusions: Selected studies demonstrated that high-intensity and moderate-intensity aerobic training combined or not with muscle strength anaerobic exercise reduces pain and improves QOL in females with fibromyalgia.
