Registration Number
NCT03629821
Lead Sponsor
Universidade Federal de Santa Maria
Brief Summary

Is a parallel longitudinal protocol where half patients receive a experimental protocol and the other half receive orientation to maintain your daily live routine as usually. The experimental protocol include Ballet sessions. The hypothesis is interventional group will improve the balance control more than control group.
