摘要：Purpose: Through this case study paper we intend to prove that the use of our specific,individualized kinetic programs leads to the improvement of the analyzed subject’s postural balance.Methods: To validate the hypothesis we have used the following research methods: the bibliographic research,the questionnaire research method,the observation method and the case study method.For the assessment of the subject’s balance we used a series of initial,intermediate and final tests.The study was conducted from July to September 2013.The kinetic programs we used consisted in performing simple bodyweight exercises or exercises that required different equipment,such as bands,stability balls,wobble boards,balance foams,medicine balls and Bosu balls.The subject was submitted to 20 training sessions,45 minutes each.The balance assessment tests were Romberg,Fukuda and a static and dynamic posturography using the Multitest platform.Results: At the end of the 20 training sessions using our individualized kinetic programs,the results showed an improvement of the subject’s static and dynamic balance.Conclusions: As a result of the case study research,the hypothesis was confirmed.Therefore,we determined that individualized kinetic programs contribute to the improvement of the subject’s postural balance.The positive results determined us to extend the research on larger groups of subjects.
