Summary

This study investigates the effectiveness of whole-body vibration (WBV) versus rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) on spasticity, balance, and lower limb motor function in hemiplegic stroke patients. The objective was to compare the two interventions to determine which provides greater benefits in stroke rehabilitation. Hemiplegic stroke patients were randomly assigned to either the WBV group, receiving whole-body vibration therapy, or the RAS group, undergoing rhythmic auditory stimulation sessions.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Vibration Therapy

will receive the whole body vibration therapy. Patient will be ask to stand on the vibration plate in semi flexed knee position will 3 minute time of rest and therapy. It will be given for four weeks three days per week. Acceleration will be 18.0 meter per second square and frequency will be from 30 to 40 Hz. Intensity of the therapy will increase throughout all the sessions

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Rhythmic auditory stimulation therapy.

will receive rhythmic auditory stimulation therapy. Rhythmic auditory stimulation will be given for 90 minutes along with 30 minutes of conventional physiotherapy. It will consist of 15 minutes of general body warming metronome rhythm which proceed towards RAS music based exercise of 60 minutes. This period also ends up with 15 minutes of relaxation exercise. Relaxing Music was provided through headphones having voice cancellation property for 15 min. The total session will be given three days per week for four weeks. Exercises such as lateral walking military march, anterior walking, one toe and one heel walking along with posterior walking through progression with the speed of the rhythm is done
