According to the current recommendations, multicomponent physical rehabilitation programs are the obligatory link of a comprehensive system of treatment of systemic osteoporosis and its complications. The purpose of the work was to develop a program of physical rehabilitation for women aged 50–84 with osteoporosis and fractures of vertebral bodies at the level of the thoracic and / or lumbar spine and assessing its effectiveness and safety. We offer a program of physical rehabilitation, which involves the use of new therapeutic gymnastics complexes (basic and varicose), respiratory gymnastics, therapeutic massage, stepper simulator (mini), dosed corsets and rational nutrition for postmenopausal women, depending on their age, number and location of vertebral fractures. To evaluate the effectiveness of the developed program of physical rehabilitation, 53 postmenopausal women aged 50–84 years were examined. Static and dynamic types of functional testing were used. The examined women were engaged in the developed program of physical rehabilitation for seven months. The analysis of the effectiveness of complex treatment of systemic osteoporosis with vertebral fractures with the inclusion of the proposed program of physical rehabilitation has shown a significant increase in both dynamic and static indicators of functional testing, indicating its effectiveness. The absence of a negative effect of the above program on hemodynamic indices indicates its safety, which allows it to be recommended for introduction into practical medicine for use in older women with fractures of vertebrate bodies.
