Virtual Reality with Routine Physical Therapy
Motor imagery technique with Routine Physical Therapy
Routine Physical Therapy
The duration of the VR will be from 10 to 15 minutes during each session and Routine Physical Therapy for 40 minutes which consists of warming-up, stretching, strengthening and active exercises for relaxation, coordination exercises for limbs, trunk, neck, and gait training)
Motor Imagery techniques will be given for 5 to 10 minutes along with routine physical therapy for 40 minutes which consists of warming-up, stretching, strengthening and active exercises for relaxation, coordination exercises for limbs, trunk, neck, and gait training)
Only routine physical therapy will be given (including warming-up, stretching, strengthening and active exercises for relaxation, coordination exercises for limbs, trunk, neck, and gait training)
