Summary

Stroke is one of the major cause of lifelong disability if not treated on time, the investigator's technique knows as Compelled Body Weight Shift Technique (CBWS) was utilized and administered to chronic stroke population and results were figured out using gait parameters and Tinetti POMA scale.

Detailed description

Total 28 sample size out of which 27 were divided into control and experimental group. Inclusion criteria was Unilateral chronic stroke with asymmetrical stance, Patients with score of 3,4 and 5 will be included according to FAS (Functional Ambulation Scale), Ability to understand and follow instructions, Both male and female, Any type of stroke, and Age 40-60. Written and informed consent was obtained from participants of study. Six weeks of exercise training was combined with compelled body weight shift technique via shoe lift of 0.6 cm thickness for experimental group and for control group training was performed without shoe lift.

Conditions
