Effects of Balance Exercises With and Without Clamshell Exercises on Physical Performanace and Balance After Menopause
Overview
Exercise-based balance intervention is structured program of physical exercises intended to enhance balance, stability, and clamshell exercises are known as an exercise-based balance intervention. A crucial component of physical therapy and fitness regimens targeted at enhancing stability, reducing the risk of falls, and promoting general physical health is exercise-based balance therapies. Women's ability to function both physically and mentally can be significantly impacted by menopause. To find out the effects of an exercise based balance intervention on physical and clamshell exercises after menopause Certain consequences can be lessened by address these alterations with focused interventions.These will be a randomized clinical trial and will be conducted in Bhawalpur Victoria Hospital and Mehran Rehab Clinic. This study will be completed in the time duration of 10 months after the approval of Synopsis. Non probability convenience sampling technique will be used and participants will be recruited in study after the randomization.80 participants with age between 50-65 years will be included in the study according to the inclusion criteria. Group A will receive balance exercises and clamshell exercises Group B will be recieve only balance exercises the tool that will be used are the sit and raised test , y balance test, Romberg test for check the balance. Timed raised chair task for check the strength . timed up and go for check the mobility . heel shin touch test for check the coordination. Time shuttle runs for check the speed. Step test for check the power after data collection, data will be analyzed by using SPPSS 26.
Interventions
- Other Balance exercise with clamshell
balance was assessed by the Berg's Balance Scale exercise. Participants were instructed to walk (step) from one end of the mat to the other according to the step pattern provided. When reached the end of the mat, instructed to return to their starting position by walking normally off the mat and starting the next stepping. repeat every sequence five times and then started a new pattern.

They were advised not to tilt the limb backwards and to maintain a neutral pelvic position 3,5 sets for 10 repetations tw
