Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of 12 sessions of rotational exercises on the novice females’ balance with and without visual and proprioceptive senses manipulation. The statistical sample included 27 girl students with an age range of 19-24 years that were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Subjects were classified into experimental and control groups by random assignment and the experimental group was treated by intervention for 12 sessions. To evaluate postural control, the force plate in the conditions of open and close eyes, with and without balance pad was used. For analyze the data were used Analysis of variance with repeated measures, multivariate covariance and bonferroni post-hoc test in SPSS v23. The ANOVA test results showed that the effect of Rotational exercises was no significant (P>0.05). But, based on the results of Bonferroni post-hoc test, in conditions 2&3, the effects of rotational exercises on COP sway in the X-axis in conditions of manipulation of the visual & proprioception system separately was significant (p < 0.05). According to the results of the present research, it seems that rotational exercises can be more effective in balance (X-axis) and this reduces people's reliance on visual system and proprioception.
