Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

line dancing

The intervention included 60-minute sessions, two days a week for four weeks for a total of eight sessions. All sessions were administered by the physiotherapist who has 26 years of experience in dance therapy. The dance was performed on a one to one basis with minimal support from the therapist. The line dancing sequence, which was specially created for this training program, was designed as a structured goal-oriented dance. Line dancing movements/steps are comprised of moving forward and backward, or sideways and turns and scuff. In addition, the fact that one foot is always in contact with the ground makes it ideal for patients with multiple sclerosis, who may have balance problems.
