Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Stair Climb Test (SCT) 1st visit ,3 week , 6 week Measures the time to ascend and descend a flight stair of 4 steps.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Timed Up and Go test (TUG) 1st visit ,3 week , 6 week It uses the time that a person takes to rise from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn around 180 degrees, walk back to the chair, and sit down while turning 180 degrees.,Berg Balance Scale (BBS) 1st visit ,3 week , 6 week Patients receive a score from 0-4 on their ability to meet these balance dimensions. A global score can be calculated out of 56. ,Gait speed 1st visit ,3 week , 6 week Measure used to assess walking speed in meters per second over a short distance. Patient should be performed over a flat, straight 14-meter track. Only the middle 10 meters will be timed.
