Abstract

This research aims to propose a set of therapeutic actions to ensure that the period between each seizure (inter-seizure period) in young people with Grand Mal type epilepsy is longer and  they  participate in physical activities, which will improve their quality of life; in addition to involving people close to these young epileptics. During the development of the work, different research methods were used such as analysis-synthesis, induction-deduction, observation, specialist criteria, percentage calculation and hypothesis testing of the problem to be investigated, which made it work more fluently. In general, the improvement of several indicators was obtained, which results in an increase in the quality of life. It was concluded that the proposal made is feasible.
