Rehabilitation and balance trainingRehabilitation and balance trainingEach patient will attend rehabilitation program for three days per week for six weeks. Patients will receive balance training in addition to supervised rehabilitation program which is including patient education, stretching and strengthening exercises. Patients will also implement home exercise program. Balance training will be non-supervised program.
