The Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis disease is considered one of the most common diseases in our environment today, in turn it is one of the most tragic for patients who suffer from it, in addition to their family and social environment in general. This neurodegenerative disease does not show a clearly studied and defined etiology, despite its unknown origin, the worldwide prevalence is still too high, varying between 2 and 11 cases per 100,000 people; The approximate age of presentation is from 58 to 63 years for the less frequent cases, and from 47 to 52 years for the most frequent cases. Knowing one more proposal for physiotherapeutic treatment is of vital importance.
