Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Sensory-motor exercise + conventional care (experimental group)   The experimental group will receive 18 sessions of sensory-motor exercise along with conventional care. At first participants will complete the warm-up session by light walking-marching and joint mobility exercises for 5-10 minutes. After the warm-up, participants will receive hamstrings, quadriceps, triceps surae, neck and hand muscles stretching. After that, participants will perform six sensory-motor exercise: single leg stance, exercise on wobble board, star excursion balance exercise, tandem walking, colored path exercise and obstacles on path exercise by maintaining appropriate frequency and intensity for 30-40 minutes. Then finally participants will perform some breathing exercise for 5 minutes following cool-down.  
Comparator Agent  Strengthening exercise + conventional care (control group)  The control group will receive 18 sessions of strengthening exercise along with conventional care. At first participants will complete the warm-up session by light walking-marching and joint mobility exercises for 5-10 minutes. After the warm-up, participants will receive hamstrings, quadriceps, triceps surae, neck and hand muscles stretching. After that, participants will perform resistance training with TheraBand: arm curl, shoulder abduction, hip flexor, hip extensor, hip adductor, hip abductor, knee flexor, knee extensor, ankle plantar flexor, ankle dorsiflexor for 25-30 minutes; bridging exercise including back and prone for 5-10 minutes; ball squeezing exercise for 5 minutes. Then finally participants will perform some breathing exercise for 5 minutes following cool-down

Brief Summary  
We plan to carry out six weeks randomized clinical trial. We will compare the effectiveness between sensorimotor exercise and strengthening exercise in community-dwelling older adult. This study aims to determine the community-dwelling older adults’ sociodemographic characteristics, baseline comparison at pretest and determine the effectiveness of sensorimotor exercise on overall function and quality of life during the posttest and twelve-weeks follow-up also. We expect better treatment outcome after 18 sessions of intervention in community-dwelling older adult who receive sensorimotor exercise along with conventional care.
