Sponsor's own description

Functional limitation and balance deficits occur with aging in normal healthy individuals due to decline in muscle strength. Muscle strengthening exercises and balance training has shown improvement of functional status of elderly. And whole body vibrations along with strengthen and balance training has been suggested to reduce the effects of aging in balance and functional abilities. Aim of this study was to find out the additional effects of whole body vibration along with balance training in older adults. It was a Randomized Control Trial Study. Study setting was railway general hospital Rawalpindi. Inclusion Criteria was Age 50 to 70 years old people, with moderate fall risk (BBS Score 21-40), both genders with Controlled diabetes and HTN, 112 Subjects were randomly and equally allocated to experimental group(n=56) and control group(n=56) through toss and coin method. Participants in both groups were examined for balance abilities with the Berg Balance Scale, Functional Independence Scale, \& Timed up and Go Test (TUG) before and after 4 weeks treatment protocol.
