Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Matter of Balance TrainingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants in group B will undergo matter of balance training for 8 weeks (one session a week for 2 hours/day).
Group II: CogXergamingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
CogXergaming based cognitive-motor balance training will be delivered to group A using the commercially available Wii-Fit Nintendo and a mouse in conjunction with cognitive training. All participants will undergo 18 sessions of training in a tapering manner for six weeks with 60-90 minutes of training per session, i.e., 3 sessions each week till the 6th week. Each session will be divided into 3 sub-sessions, where each sub-session will consist of playing 4 to 6 games in conjunction with cognitive task.
