Brief summary: Postmenopausal obese women often have difficulties with balance and proprioception. Sensorimotor training is an important part of physical therapy interventions, with emerging evidence that it could be beneficial for postmenopausal obese women.

Objective: To find the impact of sensorimotor training on balance and proprioception among postmenopausal obese women.

Detailed description: Randomized clinical trial was conducted on postmenopausal obese women population with impaired balance and proprioception on inclusion \& exclusion criteria, sample size of 40, ages ranged from 45 to 65 years included. Group A received SMT and Group B received CT. The interval of treatment was 6 weeks. Data is collected from THQ Samundri. FRT, TUG, OLS utilized to assess the pre-and post-estimations of postural strength.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* • Post-menopausal obese women

  * BMI ≥30
  * Participants independent in ADLs
  * self-ambulatory
  * healthy (having no known condition in which sensorimotor exercises would be contraindicated.)

Exclusion Criteria:

* • History of ankle sprain

  * Uncontrolled diabetes mullites
  * Presence of orthopaedic problems.
  * Neurological disorders.
  * Psychological problems.
  * Cognitive issues.
  * People with severe visual issues
