Detailed Description

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

The objectives of the study are: (1) To investigate the effect of reactive balance training on balance and functional performance, (2) To investigate the effect of proactive balance training on functional activity and balance stroke survivors, and (3) To study the reactive balance training versus the proactive balance on balance and functional performance among stroke survivors.

The study will be a single-blinded RCT study will consist of 40 chronic stroke patients and will allocate randomly into 2 groups, the first intervention group n=20 will have proactive-balance training, and the second group n= 20 will have reactive balance training, the two groups will be blinded.

The study population will be chronic stroke patients discharged from Bethlehem Arab Society for Rehabilitation (BASR), Alahli Hospital, Al Mezan Hospital, and Alehsan Society for Rehabilitation, and lives in Hebron City and their villages.

The program will consist of 24 sessions in 8 weeks, through 3 sessions weekly. The sessions will be 45 minutes, starting with a 10 Min warm-up exercise and then the balance training and the sessions will end with 5 Min cool-down exercise.

The session will be individualized, the program has sequences depending on the patient's ability.

The program consists of:

1. Sitting training
2. Standing training
3. Walking training The sequences of the training will be based on a balance training protocol.
