Effect of Nervous System Mobilization on Older Adults' Postural Control

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to compare the effectiveness of nervous system mobilization and exercise with exercise only on institutionalized older adults' postural control.

Clinical Trial Description

It is anticipated that 26 institutionalized older adults will be randomly allocated to receive either exercise and neural mobilization (n=13) or exercise only (n=13).

Data on pain intensity (a vertical numeric rating scale) and location (body chart), depression (Geriatric Depression Scale), balance, hand grip strength, timed up and go and gait velocity will be collected at baseline, end of treatment and at 3 months follow up.
