Effects of Thai traditional dance on balance performance in daily life among older women.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Previous research indicates that dance training may improve balance among older adults. AIMS:This study investigated the effects of Thai traditional dance on balance performance among older women. METHODS:Forty-three women aged 60-80 years, with mean scores between 45 and 52 points on the Berg Balance Scale (BBS), were recruited and randomly assigned into two groups: a Thai traditional dance group (TTDG) (n = 22) and a control group (CG) (n = 21). TTD program comprised three dance sessions of 30-60 min per week over the course of 12 weeks while the CG kept their normal daily activities. Balance performance was assessed using standardized tests including the NeuroCom Balance Master® System (Version 9.2), the Timed Up and Go Test (TUG) and the BBS. RESULTS:The results revealed that overall balance was better for those in TTDG compared to the CG. There was a significantly lower sway velocity and faster weight transfer in the Sit-to-Stand Test (p ≤ 0.001) for those in the dance group. TTDG had quicker turn time in the Step Quick Turn Test (p ≤ 0.001), improved Step Up Over Test and Walk Across Test, faster movement time, walking speed, and a better score in the TUG after training (p ≤ 0.001). DISCUSSION:A 3-weekly Thai traditional dance intervention significantly improved balance and mobility among older community-dwelling women as compared to normal daily activities. CONCLUSION:Thai traditional dance could potentially prevent age-related mobility and balance decline and its related fall risk.
