Experimental Group

"specific intervention programme in the experimental group, which will be carried out over a period of 6 weeks, with a total of 12 scheduled sessions of 45 minutes each. The programme will be aimed at improving various functional capacities, through specifically designed exercises, including:~* Unipodal stability: Exercises focused on strengthening balance by maintaining a posture on one foot, which is key to preventing falls and improving postural stability.~* Gait re-education: Activities aimed at correcting and adjusting gait technique, promoting an efficient and safe movement pattern.~* Muscle strength: Exercises aimed at muscle strengthening, especially in the lower limbs, to increase endurance and stability during daily activities.~* Stationary walking: Practices that simulate stationary walking, improving cardiovascular endurance and motor coordination."
