What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Functional Gait Outcomes
Time Frame: Change from baseline gait speed to post-test up to 6 weeks following the intervention.
Gait speed will be assessed using a gait mat.
Change from baseline gait speed to post-test up to 6 weeks following the intervention.
Change in Endurance
Time Frame: Change from baseline distance covered to post-test up to 6 weeks following the intervention.
Endurance will be assessed using the 6-minute walk test.
Change from baseline distance covered to post-test up to 6 weeks following the intervention.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in balance
Time Frame: Change from baseline balance to post-test up to 6 weeks following the intervention.
Balance will be assessed using the Berg Balance Scale.
Change from baseline balance to post-test up to 6 weeks following the intervention.
