RESULT: Activation of the erector spinae in the experimental group was significantly increased compared to that in the control
group (p < 0.01), whereas activation of the rectus abdominis decreased during sit-to-stand. Of the gait parameters, load response,
single support, total double support, and pre-swing showed significant changes in the experimental group with a hippotherapy
simulator compared to control group (p < 0.05). Moreover, activation of the erector spinae and rectus abdominis in gait correlate
with changes of gait parameters including load response, single support, total double support, and pre-swing in experimental
group.
CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that use of a hippotherapy simulator to patients with stroke can improve asymmetric
weight bearing by influencing trunk muscles.
