Abstract
[Purpose] This study aimed to find the effect of spinal stabilization with visual feedback on the balance of stroke survivors. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty-one chronic stroke patients participated in the study. The experimental group underwent a spinal stabilization exercise program 30 minutes per day, 5 times per week, for a total of 8 weeks. The control group received conventional physiotherapy. The Berg balance scale, and the Timed up and go and Functional reach tests were performed to assess subjects's balance. [Results] There were significant differences between before and after the intervention in all balance parameters of the experimental group, but the control group showed no significant differences. A statistically significant difference was found between the two groups for the Timed up-and-go test. [Conclusion] The results of this study show that spinal stabilization with visual feedback is an effective intervention for improving the balance of chronic stroke patients.
