Many methods are used for balance training. One of them is balance discs. Balance discs consist of smooth and rough surfaces. Balance training is given to children with cerebral palsy on these two surfaces. Thanks to its balance disc structure, it plays an active role in the development of balance, but there is a need for evidence about whether rough or smooth surfaces and training have superiority over each other. Knowing the difference between the two surfaces will help the staff about which surface to use in the treatment and will be beneficial for the children.~The aim of this study is to determine whether there is a difference between a rough and smooth surface in terms of improving proprioceptive sense and balance.
This is a non-invasive prospective study investigating the effects of balance discs with different surfaces used in balance education in children with cerebral palsy on proprioceptive sense and balance.
