Summary

This study compares two types of balance training for older adults (55+): interactive video games (exergaming using Xbox Kinect) and standard Otago exercises. Over 6 weeks, 36 participants will do supervised sessions three times a week. The goal is to see which approach better improves balance, reaction time, and mobility, with the aim of reducing fall risk.
