Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Rehabilitation and balance training

Each patient will attend rehabilitation program for three days per week for six weeks. Patients will receive balance training in addition to supervised rehabilitation program which is including patient education, stretching and strengthening exercises.

Patients will also implement home exercise program. Balance training will be non-supervised program.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Rehabilitation and balance training

Intervention Type OTHER

Stretching will be applied as hold-relax technique in Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation for shoulder flexion, abduction, internal and external rotations. Isotonic exercises will be done with elastic bands for strengthening.

Home exercises will include postural, stretching and strengthening exercises. Balance exercises will receive as non-supervised program.
