Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
physical therapy group
Control group: received a designed physical therapy program
designed physiotherapy program
structured therapeutic exercise program that included neurodevelopmental approaches, balance exercises, milestone facilitation, stretching exercises, and postural reaction facilitation. The program was conducted for one hour each day, three days a week.
whole body vibration group
experimental group: received a designed physical therapy program in addition to WBV for 12 weeks
whole body vibration
On a vibration platform, the children went into a complete squat. The device was calibrated at a frequency of 30 Hz, an amplitude of 2 mm, and a duration of 5 minutes. After the vibration was turned on, the children were told to stay in the squatting position and to report any discomfort that could occur. The vibration automatically shut off after five minutes. The children then rested for a minute. Next, under the identical conditions as for the squatting position, they were instructed to stand on the vibration platform for five minutes with the therapist\'s assistance. Consequently, WBV was applied for a total of 10 minutes during each session.
