Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To determine the effects of reverse walking with and without Whole-body vibration on postural balance in children with cerebral palsy.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Current study concluded that reverse walking with and without whole body vibration were effective in improving postural balance, reach and quality of life in cerebral palsy children. However (whole body vibration+ reverse walking) provides more clinical benefits than reverse walking alone in improving postural balance, side reach and quality of life. Whereas both techniques were equally effective in improving forward reach in cerebral palsy children.

Reverse Walking+Baseline treatment

Conventional treatment was given then received Reverse Walking Training which was provided for 7 min per set, with approximately 3 min of inter-set rest, for a total training duration of 60 min/day, 3 days/week for 3 successive months .

Whole Body Vibration + Reverse Walking+Baseline treatment

Conventional Physical Therapy Treatment was given as a baseline treatment which includes Stretching, Range of motion exercises, and Strengthening exercises) performed for 10 min.

Reverse Walking Training which was provided for 7 min per set, with approximately 3 min of inter-set rest, for a total training duration of 30 min/day, 3 days/week for 3 successive months After that Group received Whole Body Vibration including three vibration sessions per week for three months. The participants have to carry out each set of vibration for 2 min in the first month, and then it was increased to 3 min in the second and 5 min in the third month. The rest period between each set was 1 min in the first month, then it became half a minute in the second and third month. Total training duration is 30 min/day, 3 days/week for 3 successive months.
