The study of the effects of balance training on knee and ankle joint position senses and equilibrium time on single foot in healthy students (20-30 Y/O)
This study was done to investigate the effect of balance training on single leg balance and amount of error in repositioning of joint angle. Healthy university students, aged 20-30 years, participated in this study.
