The majority of children's everyday activities need balance, which is the complex ability to maintain, obtain, or restore the condition of balance of the body when a child is standing still, getting ready to move, or getting ready to stop moving. Integration of several sensory, motor, and biomechanical inputs is necessary for balance. Nonetheless, alterations in certain sensory systems (such as visual, somatosensory, and vestibular) may result in imbalances inside the body. Previous research has demonstrated that children and adolescents with hearing impairments are more likely to experience balance and/or motor deficits as a result of vestibular system damage, which increases their risk of developing motor and balance issues. Additionally, research has demonstrated a link between hearing loss and a higher risk of all-cause death, maybe through physical activity-related factors including balance and mobility. Combining maze control training with traditional physical therapy's proprioceptive exercises tests your balance and improves your stability overall.

Balance is the complex ability to retain, achieve, or restore the condition of equilibrium of the body whether a kid is standing still, getting ready to move, or getting ready to stop moving. It is necessary for most of the everyday activities that children engage in. Balance requires the integration of multiple sensory, motor, and biomechanical inputs. However, changes in some sensory systems (visual, somatosensory, vestibular) might lead to internal disequilibrium. Previous studies have shown that vestibular system damage in children and adolescents with hearing impairments increases the likelihood of balance and/or motor deficiencies, which in turn raises the chance of developing motor and balance difficulties. Furthermore, studies have shown a connection between hearing loss and an increased risk of dying from all causes, maybe as a result of elements connected to physical activity, such as mobility and balance. By combining proprioceptive exercises from standard physical therapy with maze control training, you may test your balance and enhance your general stability.

For this, a randomized controlled trial will be employed. The study will be approved by the ethics committee. when that, patients who fulfill the study's inclusion requirements will be included when their informed consent has been obtained. The 36 patients will be divided into two groups, and each child's balance will be assessed using the pediatric balance scale, CTSIB, and SWOC. The control group will participate in a regular 10-week physical therapy program that includes 60 minutes of proprioceptive training for balance two times a week, while the study group will receive the proprioceptive training along-with seven-stage maze balance board training three times per day and twice a week for a total of 60 minutes. The data will be examined for mean and standard deviation using SPSS 25. A suitable assessment will be employed to contrast the two cohorts.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Children of age 5-8yrs with moderate to severe hearing impairment (41-80 decibels )
• Ability to understand the command
• Single leg stance (Screening Test): Putting leg down before 30 sec using arm for balance
• No history of MSK disorder.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Children with perceptual or visual deficits
• Children with seizures or epilepsy
• Marked hip and knee flexion contractures
• Serious medical complications
• Children with fixed deformity of both lower limbs and children with surgical interventions, e.g., tendon release

Participants will get separate treatment protocols and possible efforts will be put to mask both groups about treatment.
