Your mentors and senior researchers need to be fired for allowing NDT/Bobath as part of a research study. Proven not to work since 2003.

Abstract: Study compared the effects of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization (DNS) and conventional neurodevelopmental treatment (NDT) exercises on diaphragm movement, abdominal muscle thickness, and postural control in stroke patients. Thirty-one participants were randomly allocated into DNS and NDT for 30 minutes each day, 3 days a week for 4 weeks. Diaphragm movement and abdominal muscle thickness were determined using ultrasonography. The Trunk Impairment Scale and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) were used to measure postural control. The Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) was used to evaluate gait ability. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used to evaluate post-test differences in the DNS and NDT exercise groups. ANCOVA revealed the superior effects of DNS in diaphragm movement and abdominal muscle thickness (transversus abdominis, internal oblique), as well as clinical BBS and FAC tests, compared with those of NDT. The findings demonstrate that DNS training was more effective than NDT training in improving postural movement control and gait ability via a balanced co-activation of the diaphragm and transversus abdominis/internal oblique muscles in patients with hemiparetic stroke.
