Summary
The effectiveness of breast cancer treatment is quite well documented. Still, side effects
 can underpin other treatment-induced diseases such as osteopenia, diabetes, and especially
 cardiovascular dysfunction. Therefore, finding a method that could partly counteract these
 side effects and at the same time be implemented throughout treatment is a challenge for
 researchers.
 
 The main purpose of this experimental, randomized control trial was to analyze the effect of
 the Pilates Method (PM) intervention on changing the myofascial stiffness along the thoracic
 and lumbar spine, cardiorespiratory fitness and quality of life in women with breast cancer
 receiving aromatase inhibitor therapy. The apllied procedure of 12 -week PM training included
 the training intervention based on hypothesis:
 
 - PM reduces myofascial stiffness along the thoracic and lumbar spine of women with breast
 cancer receiving aromatase inhibitor therapy
 
 - PM improves the cardiorespiratory fitness of women with breast cancer receiving
 aromatase inhibitor therapy
 
 - PM improves the quality of life of women with breast cancer receiving aromatase
 inhibitor therapy.
 
 Possible practical applications include the domains of exercise medicine, physical activity
 in cancer and public health.
