Methodology: the review was carried out according to the criteria of the PRISMA statement, considering studies in the electronic databases PubMed\/Medline, Pubmed Central\/Medline, Web of Science, EBSCO, and ScienceDirect. Results: MRT plus CFT generated therapeutic effects in some aspects of the physical variables: 100% pain (7 of 7 studies); 100% strength (5 out of 5 studies); range of motion 87.5% (7 out of 8 studies); 100% speed (1 of 1 study), functional variables: 100% gait (7 of 7 studies); functional capacity 87.5% (7 out of 8 studies); cognitive variables: 100% motor visualization ability (2 out of 2 studies); cognitive performance 100% (2 of 2 studies); and quality of life 66.6% (2 of 3 studies). When comparing its effects with conventional physical therapy, the variables that reported the greatest statistically significant changes were motor visualization ability, speed, pain, strength and gait. The most used MRT was motor imagery (MI), and the average time extension of therapies was 3.5 weeks. Conclusions: movement representation techniques combined with conventional physical therapy are an innocuous and low-cost therapeutic intervention with therapeutic effects in patients with knee arthroplasty (KA) and hip arthroplasty (HA), and this combination generates greater therapeutic effects in physical, functional, and cognitive variables than conventional physical therapy alone.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sports10120198","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,5]],"date-time":"2022-12-05T06:29:09Z","timestamp":1670221749000},"page":"198","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Effects of the Practice of Movement Representation Techniques in People Undergoing Knee and Hip Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1563-7229","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Crist\u00f3bal","family":"Riquelme-Hern\u00e1ndez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela de Kinesiolog\u00eda, Departamento de Salud, Universidad Arturo Prat, Victoria 4720000, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7628-0203","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Juan Pablo","family":"Reyes-Barr\u00eda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela de Kinesiolog\u00eda, Departamento de Salud, Universidad de los Lagos, Puerto Montt 5480000, Chile"},{"name":"Cl\u00ednica Resilient, Puerto Montt 5480000, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0909-2127","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abner","family":"Vargas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cl\u00ednica Resilient, Puerto Montt 5480000, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yaynel","family":"Gonzalez-Robaina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela de Educaci\u00f3n, Universidad de Concepci\u00f3n, Los \u00c1ngeles 4440000, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rafael","family":"Zapata-Lamana","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela de Educaci\u00f3n, Universidad de Concepci\u00f3n, Los \u00c1ngeles 4440000, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3404-9999","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"David","family":"Toloza-Ramirez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Exercise and Rehabilitation Sciences Institute, School of Speech Therapy, Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences, Universidad Andres Bello, Santiago 7591538, Chile"},{"name":"Interdisciplinary Center for Neuroscience, Faculty of Medicine, Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Chile, Santiago 8320000, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1986-1148","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria Antonia","family":"Parra-Rizo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, Valencian International University (VIU), 46002 Valencia, Spain"},{"name":"Department of Health Psychology, Faculty of Social and Health Sciences, Campus of Elche, Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez University (UMH), 03202 Elche, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0418-8787","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Igor","family":"Cigarroa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela de Kinesiolog\u00eda, Facultad de Salud, Universidad Santo Tom\u00e1s, Los \u00c1ngeles 4440000, Chile"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e77","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0040-1719024","article-title":"Evoluci\u00f3n epidemiol\u00f3gica de la artroplastia de cadera y rodilla durante 17 a\u00f1os en pacientes con artrosis severa en un Hospital Chileno","volume":"62","author":"Barahona","year":"2021","journal-title":"Rev.
