Brief Summary: Down Syndrome is a genetic condition caused by having an extra copy of chromosome 21 and 47 chromosomes instead of 46 A complete or partial extra copy of chromosome 21 is responsible for the anomaly and related structural and functional abnormalities of the body systems Depending on the degree of abnormality Down Syndrome has different impacts on different people as a result differences exist in personality abilities talents and physical and mental development According to this syndrome the patients shared characteristics with one another that suggested they were siblings including a broad flat face a small nose a thick tongue narrow palpebral fissures obliquely positioned eyes roundish and laterally extended cheeks a long tongue and varying degrees of intellectual impairment

Prior to the study all participants will be informed of the purpose and method of conducting the research Each of them will sign an informed consent release to participate in the project and to process personal data for scientific purposes This study aimed to determine the effects of hippo therapy versus balance training on balance and functional mobility in children with Downs Syndrome Randomized clinical trials will be done The study will be conducted in special school of education Sargodha and Najeeb ullah rehabilitation centre Sargodha in 10 months duration after approval of synopsis Evaluation will be done by using pediatric balance scale times up to go test Functional independence measure for children Tug test for functional mobility Non-probability convenient sampling will be used and the subjects will be allocated to two groups by random allocation through lottery method group A will be receiving hippo therapy and group B will be receiving balance training Both groups will receive 8 sessions for the period of 4 weeks Measurements of all the outcome variables will be taken at baseline 2nd and 4th week Data will be analyzed using SPSS-21
Detailed Description: GROUP A

Group A includes Hippo Therapy A hippotherapy simulator is a horse riding simulator exercise machine mimicking a horses gait and recreating the horseback riding experience within the safety of a therapy clinic Child with down syndrome will be seated on the stimulator for 10-15 minutes every session The patients pelvis moves softly rhythmically and repetitively when riding this action is comparable to what the human pelvis does when walking normally

GROUP B Group B includes balance training The therapist modified the railing height to suit each child ensuring the children were standing erect on the treadmill Treadmill training completed under three conditions in 1-min training cycles For 15 s of each minute the child could hold on to the railings with both hands for the next 15 s with one hand and finally with no hands on the handrails for 30 s Each child repeated this procedure 20 Times and cool down for 5 minutes
