Summary

To compare the effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques and perturbation-based balance training on risk of falls and quality of life in elderly population.65 to 85 years old age both male and female participants experienced fall greater than1 time in last 1 year is included in this study.Two groups in this study group A will receive proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques and group B will receive pertubations based balance training.berg balance scale,time up and go test quality of life scale and Modified John Hopkins Fall Risk Assessment Tool will be used for pre and post assessment.

Conditions

  • Balance; Distorted

Interventions

OTHER

proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation

Each session including three proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques: Balance training exercises,participants will be treated for 20 minutes with PNF techniques that included;Rhythmic initiation, slow reversal techniques practiced with D1 and D2 pattern in lower limb,repeated contraction and Resisted PNF.The Technique will be performed for 3 days per week in same order on all subjects.

OTHER

pertubation based balance training

Each session will include a 5-10min warm-up,voluntary tasks intended to induce internal perturbations,voluntary tasks combined with external perturbations and a 5-10mins cool down.The technique will be performed for 2 sets of 10 repetitions on all subjects
