Abstract

Introduction: The rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that is characterized for peripheral polyarthritis that can carry the deformities, destruction articulate and functional inability.

Methods: This work has as goal systematize the knowledge concerning about of the in the patient's RA treatment bearer. It is a literature revision accomplished with access to the database Medline, virtual library Pubmed and manual consultations in the article references published between 2000 to 2007. They were included studies that boarded the aquatic physical therapy in the treatment of these individuals, in the english and portuguese languages. It were excluded articles that related the aquatic physical therapy in the bearers’ treatment of submitted RA the surgical intervention, or that boarded RA associate to others collagen diseases, those essentially pharmacological and referring goods to balneotherapy. Eight important articles located tried before the defined period as inclusion criterion, also were selected. Results: After the research, they were found 67 articles. From this, 14 were included in the study. Predominantly the methodology was composed of interventional studies and of case-control. Conclusion: The aquatic physical therapy can benefit the patient with RA with aim of increasing ROM, muscle strength, cardiovascular capacity, functionality, balance postural, reduce the pain and thus provide one improves in the individuals life quality with RA.
