Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of Halliwick 10 point program on the balance control. Fourteen undergraduate students participated in the experiment, and classified 7 experiment and 7 control group, randomly. Halliwick 10 point program was applied in the experiment group for 4 weeks. Balance index was measured using KAT 2000. Balance index were measured before, during(2 weeks), and after(4 weeks) the training for 4 weeks. 2-way repeated measures ANOVA was used to further distinguish between the groups. The following results were obtained; 1. The total balance index scores from a KAT were significantly decreased after 4 weeks compared with before the training passing of time. However there was no significant difference between experiment and control group. 2. The left and anterior shifting balance index scores from a KAT were significantly decreased after 4 weeks compared with before the training passing of time. However there was no significant difference between experiment and control group. These results lead us to the conclusion that the balance ability of women twenties increase as the water is higher than that of the ground applied Halliwick 10 point program of the water specific therapy province. Therefore, A further direction of this study will be to provide more evidence for Halliwick 10 point program in the water specific therapy.
