| Abstract | The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of multidirectional reach training on dynamic balance in individuals with stroke. Sixteen participants with stroke were recruited and randomly assigned into two groups, experimental and control. Participants in the experimental group were trained with the multidirectional reach training for 30 minutes and conventional physical therapy 30 minutes/day, 3 days/week for 4 weeks. Participants in the control group were received a conventional physical therapy for 30 minutes/day, 3 days /week for 4 weeks. The outcomes were limits of stability, weight bearing squat, multi-directional reach test, Fullerton advance balance scale, and Fugl Meyer Assessment. All of the outcome measures were measured at pre-training (Wk0), post-training (Wk4), and follow-up (Wk8). A two-way repeat measurement ANOVA was conducted to address the research questions. At post- training, and follow-up, the results showed that participants in the experimental group reported improvement of dynamic balance than the control group. Furthermore, Fullerton advance balance scale which refers to activity was more improve at follow-up in the experimental group than control group. The result of this study provides evidence that multidirectional reach training is effective for improve dynamic balance in individuals with stroke. |
