- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Primary outcome will be demonstrate the impact of hip osteoarthritis on change in postural stability between study groups.[Pedobarographic assessment will be conducted before starting treatment in women with hip osteoarthritis.<br>Each participant will be underwent a single pedobarographic reading.<br><br>single pedobarographic reading consist of four tests (2 x EO and 2 x EC) each readings taken 30 seconds in duration, with 60 seconds intermissions between each reading. During the pedobarographic assessment participants are asked to stand (barefoot) on a electronic podometer,the length (mm), area (mm^2) mean velocity (mm/s) of center of gravity (COG) deviations and foot pressure are collected.]
