Abstract

|
Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of foot perceptual training on balance and gait in patient with chronic stroke.
Methods: This study was designed ABA format in single subject research design. The participants were trained the foot perceptual training for 30 minutes a day, 5 times a week, for two weeks. Before the treatment is implemented, the baseline (A) data was collected for 5 times. Foot perceptual training (B) data was collected 10 times during intervention. Baseline (A’) data was collected 5 times after the intervention. Foot perceptual training proceeded with realignment, facilitation, and activation. The balance was measured by Physiofeedback MTD for static and Timed Up and Go test (TUG) for dynamic.
Results: As a result of the study, the static and dynamic balance were improved after intervention. These effects were maintained even during the regression baseline period.
Conclusion: The Results showed that foot perceptual training was effective in the improvement of static or dynamic balance and gait. The foot perceptual training would be the effective therapeutic exercise that could be applied to patient with chronic stroke.
