OTHERmotor relearning programme

OTHERelectrical muscle stimulations with motor relearning programme

Treatment protocol includes Brief period of warm up and cool down (5 minutes). Individuals of this group will be provided 3 sessions per week; 1 hour per session; 24 sessions of task specific training based on the motor relearning programme. Each task specific training consists of 10 minutes. Individuals of this group will be provided 3 sessions per week; 1 hour per session; 24 sessions for 8 weeks task specific training based on the motor relearning programme and 10 minutes of the EMS of each muscle during the session.
