After stroke, a main goal of rehabilitation is promote independent in activity of daily living. An important determinant of activities of daily living performance is standing and balance, which is a strong predictor of functional recovery and walking capacity in post stroke rehabilitation. Purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of different balance Techniques/Approaches on post stroke rehabilitation. Furthermore, the study was aimed to identify which training regimen was most effective. Electronic databases were searched to evaluate the effects of exercise therapy on balance capacity in stroke rehabilitation. 63 articles were studied and 42 were selected after inclusion and exclusion criteria strategies. After going through all the articles, it was concluded that both the three approaches (Mental Practice/Mental Imagery MP/MI, Visual Reality VR, and Mirror Therapy MT) were effective, but MP/MI is more effective according to my studies, it was observed that mental imagery is a safe and low-cost technique that can be performed even without supervision once the patient has completed appropriate training.
