The session was around 45 to 60 min on each patient with three sessions per week on alternate days. A total of Three weeks treatment regime was given to the patients and assessment of patient's strength (CAIT) and performance (FAAM) was done at the baseline, after the completion of treatment at three weeks and after six weeks to observe the long-term effects.

SMART TRAINING

Patients in Group A received SMART training intervention. For sensory stimulation planter massage was given, and it was applied to entire planter surface. Grade III anterior to posterior talocrural joint mobilization was given (26). For balance, single and double leg stance was performed. For functional training, lateral hops and SEBT was performed. And at the end, for resistance training, theraband was used with normal ankle joint movement. There is a progress in focus between the five domains over the 3weeks, as described below: The domains S and M are present across the whole intervention. In week 1, the main focus is on the A domain, in week 2 on the R domain, and in week 3 on the T domain. During the 3-week intervention period, 3 training sessions was held per week each lasting approximately 45 - 60 min, including 10 min warm up
