Does Improved Ability to Achieve Single Leg Stance Lead to a More Efficient Gait Pattern in Adults With Acquired Brain Injury?

The purpose of the study is to see if a person can stand better on their weaker leg does this improve their walking ability following treatment specifically aimed at standing on leg. This will be compared to people who receive normal physiotherapy treatment not treatment specifically focusing on their ability to stand on their weaker leg. The study is being carried out as part of the researcher\'s Masters Degree. Participants will be allocated to either the control group (normal physiotherapy treatment) or the experimental group (normal physiotherapy plus physiotherapy working specifically on standing on the weaker leg). There is currently some evidence to show that working specifically on standing on one leg can improve a person\'s walking but this evidence is limited. Consequently, further research is warranted to identify any links between this treatment approach and walking ability.
