Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
study group (A)
trunk oriented exercise
trunk oriented exercises include: stretching exercises, stabilization exercises (active or active-assisted), arm exercises in fixed trunk position, trunk-oriented exercises (active or active-assisted), trunk mobilization (sitting and lying position), and functional reaching exercises with different ranges of motion in shoulder elevation
Study group (B)
whole body vibration
WBV application technique. The children assume a full squatting position on a vibration platform. The apparatus will set at a frequency of 30 Hz, an amplitude of 2 mm, and a duration of 5 min. The children were instructed to remain in squatting position after the vibration started and to report any discomfort that arose. At the end of 5 min, the vibration turned off automatically. Thereafter, the children rested for 1 min. They were then asked to stand on the vibration platform while supported by the therapist for 5 min, with the same parameters as those used in the squatting position. The total time of application of WBV in each session was 10 min.
