Balance exercises after thermal leg burns for better mobility
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether Frenkel exercises—a specialized balance and coordination training program—can help people who've recovered from moderate thermal burns on their legs regain better balance, walking ability, and quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- BMI (body mass index) between 25–30 kg/m²
- Second-degree thermal burns covering 30–45% of your body, primarily on lower legs
- Wounds must be completely healed with no open wounds
- You can stand and walk independently or with minimal help (cane, walker, or light assistance)
- No burns from chemicals, electricity, or smoke inhalation
- No serious heart, lung, bone, or neurological conditions that would interfere with exercise

This trial tests whether core stability and sensorimotor exercises help improve balance after a lower leg burn. It is for people with second-degree burns covering 20-35% of their body, once the wounds have fully healed.
This study tests whether combining core-strengthening exercises with resistance band workouts helps people walk better after a leg burn. It is designed for adults whose leg burns have healed completely within the past couple of weeks.
This study tests whether a robot that helps train walking can improve how people with severe leg burns move after surgery. If you had a large skin graft on your legs and struggle to walk, this may help you regain a more natural walking pattern.
This trial tests if water therapy (hydrotherapy) can improve balance in people who have nerve damage in their feet after a leg burn. It may help you if you have trouble standing steadily due to a burn on the sole of your foot.
This trial tests whether virtual reality exercises can help people with leg burns improve balance and reduce depression and anxiety. It is for people who had a large thermal burn on their lower body at least 3 months ago.
This study tests if jumping and hopping exercises (plyometrics) can help children with healed burns on the back of their leg move their knee better and regain strength. It's for kids ages 7–15 with a small to moderate burn area.
