An Exploratory Comparative Study of the Influence of Thai Massage on Postural Stability in Children with Overweight and Obesity
These findings suggest that Thai massage showed a potential trend toward stabilizing postural stability in children with overweight and obesity; however, the between-group differences were not statistically significant. As an exploratory study, further research with longer intervention durations and follow-up assessments is needed to determine whether clinically meaningful effects can be established.
