Background & objectives: Spinal Cord injury (SCI) can cause temporary or permanent changes in normal motor or autonomic function of the spinal cord. These changes can negatively affect a person's functioning and quality of life, also leading to postural instability in sitting balance. Physical rehabilitation after spinal cord injury (SCI) aims to optimize motor function, mobility and to improve stability and postural control especially in sitting, as it is the most adapted position. Objective was to study the difference between the effect of Task specific training and Conventional Physiotherapy on sitting balance in patients with Spinal Cord Injury.

Methods: 24 participants were involved. Group A were given Conventional Physiotherapy and Group B were given Task- specific Training for 4 weeks duration and the sitting balance was assessed by the t-shirt test, modified functional reach test, and the BOBO Pro Pre and Post intervention.

Results and Interpretation: Then data analysis was done using paired and unpaired ‘t’ test. Results showed statistically significant improvement in Group B than Group A.
