Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Both genders (male and female) of Age more than 18 years; 2. Patient had mild to moderate unilateral knee OA (Kellgren and Lawrence grade 2 or 3), 3. In case of bilateral involvement more severely involved joint will be considered and if both knee joints are equally affected then dominant limb will be considered, 4. Patients with pain above or equals to 3 and less than 7 on NPRS, 5. Able to maintain balance on unipedal stance test with eyes open for at least 10 s and with eyes closed for at least 5 s, 6. Patients having working knowledge of English.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. History of knee surgery or joint replacement e.g., total knee arthroplasty, 2. Any other musculoskeletal conditions; 3. With any neurological and cardiorespiratory disorder that might interfere with the treatment or testing program; 4. Vestibular or balance disorders like vertigo 5. Patients with cognitive impairments affecting ability to follow instructions; 6. Use of assistive devices for walking e.g., walker, crutches 7. Participation in structured lower limb strengthening or balance training in the past 3 months 8. Individuals who received any intra-articular injections to treat OA within 4 weeks before the study 9. Presence of implanted medical devices (e.g., cardiac pacemaker, IUDs, metal pins or plates, joint prosthesis incompatible with vibration therapy). 10. Any systemic or inflammatory arthritis conditions (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, septic arthritis); 11. Uncontrolled metabolic disorders ( e.g., uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, uncontrolled hypertension).
