Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Brain electrical activity. Timepoint: Before and after the 8-week intervention. Method of measurement: Using the Medina Teb Electroencephalography device, the electrical activity of the brain is measured in a state of single-leg balance.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Quality of life. Timepoint: Before and after the 8-week intervention. Method of measurement: The Short Form Health Survey (SF-36).;Static balance. Timepoint: Before and after the 8-week intervention. Method of measurement: Using a single-leg Zabris foot pressure device manufactured in the United States.;Functional disability. Timepoint: Before and after the 8-week intervention. Method of measurement: Oswestry Questionnaire.;Proprioception. Timepoint: Before and after the 8-week intervention. Method of measurement: Electrogoniametr.	—
