About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
Static balance is the ability to hold the body in a specific position and posture, while dynamic balance is the ability to maintain balance while moving. Vision, somatosensation, vestibular, and hearing are integrated to achieve balance Ethical committee approval will be obtained. A written consent will be taken from all subjects in the language best understood by them, after fulfilling the inclusion criteria, Patients age 10-14 years will be recruited through Randomized Clinical trial in which convenient sampling technique will be used. Group A 17 participants will receive Pilates training and group B 17 participants will receive balance Proprioception exercises. Pediatric balance scale and Lower Extremity Functional scale will be used .The result after statistical analysis will either show both treatments equally effective or not. Data will be calculated before and after treatment with the help of outcome measure tools.
The 2 groups in the trial
- Pilates TrainingTreatment being tested
Group A 17 participants will receive Pilates training General rehabilitation exercises. Balance and strengthening exercises. Stretching exercises will be performed.Each exercises will be performed with ten repetition for three sessions per week.
- Balance Proprioception ExercisesTreatment being tested
Group B 17 participants will receive balance Proprioception exercises. The training program will consist of 14 basic exercises on and off the balance board, with variations on each exercise. The program will be included four prescribed exercises: (a) exercise without any material, (b) exercise with a ball only, (c) exercise with a balance board only, and (d) exercise with a ball and a balance board. Also for gait and dynamic balance activity training use of Cobblestones walking mat that affects postural control. Walking task on the Cobblestone walking mat included: walking backward, walking sideways, and walking under dim light conditions. Mat walking time per session increased from 6 to 12 min during the acclimation period of the first two sessions and progressed gradually but incrementally to a maximum of 20 min per session over the 12 ensuing sessions.
