Study Groups

Exergame
inertial sensor based system (wearable sensors, LEGSys, Biosensics LLC) will be used for balance training with computerized feedback. The balance training program is focused on lower extremities including ankle joint exercise and virtual obstacle crossing tasks.
Exergame
Subjects will perform progressive and computerized foot and ankle exercises which include weight shifting, ankle reaching task while standing, and virtual obstacle crossing task (i.e. balancing on single leg) using wearable sensors technology (Exergaming) equipment). Subjects will perform these exercises for 4-6 weeks, twice per week. The duration of exercise per session is anticipated to be 30-45 minutes.
Home based balance training
The control group will ask to perform a home based program includes similar exercise components as proposed in the experimental group, however without computerized feedback. Exercises include postural balance tasks, such as backward and forward weight shifting, as well as dynamic balance exercises, such as marching in place (comparable to virtual obstacle crossing in experimental group).
Home based balance training
Subjects in the control group will ask to perform a standard home based balance program for 4-6 weeks. The home based program includes similar exercise components as proposed in the experimental group, however without computerized feedback and Exergaming equipment.
