Timepoint: First and last sessions of treatment. Method of measurement: by measuring the maximal reaching by patient in standing position without lower extremity movement.;Static balance is the ability to maintain body line of gravity within base of support margins while standing still. Timepoint: First and last sessions of treatment. Method of measurement: By measuring the person's ability to maintain his/her balance during single leg stance.;Chest expansion is the difference of thoracic level perimeter during maximal inhalation and exhalation.
