The article analyzes the results of the impact of an integrated approach to lifestyle modification, including Nordic walking, rational nutrition and pharmacotherapy, on the quality of life of elderly people (average age 72,5±3,6 years). A significant improvement in the pain scale indicator of the MOS SF-36 was revealed after six months (p=0,001), which was also determined by the end of the year (p=0,0001). A tendency to improve the quality of life was revealed in the Minnesota Questionnaire after six months (p=0,0617). A significant improvement in the Minnesota Quality of Life Questionnaire was found after a year of applying this approach (p=0,0001). The relationship of improving quality of life indicators and a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure (p=0,0016) and diastolic blood pressure (p=0,0032) in elderly people after a one-year practice of an original approach to lifestyle modification is discussed.
