Backward walking and bosu balls: a new way to help Hearing-Impaired kids stay steady?

NCT ID NCT07578909

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether walking backwards, with or without a Bosu ball, can improve balance and mobility in children aged 8-12 with hearing loss. Twenty-four participants will be split into two groups: one doing only retro walking, the other adding Bosu ball exercises. Over 8 weeks, researchers will measure balance using standard tests like the Pediatric Balance Scale.

What this could lead to
