Objectives: comparison of trunk training exercise versus pelvic PNF to improve trunk control and gait in chronic stroke patient. Method: A sample of 20 patients was recruited from the Physiotherapy Department of shree B.G. Patel College of physiotherapy and Iris Hospital anand through convenient sampling technique. Ten patients were placed to each TTE and PNF groups. TTE group was treated with trunk and L/E exercises on unstable surface and PNF group was treated with PNF patterns of Pelvic for four consecutive weeks. Pre and post treatment measurements were determined by Trunk impairment score (TIS) and Time up and go test (TUG). Results: Both group showed improvement after training, but the Trunk training exercise (TTE) group demonstrated better scores relating to PNF group in the Trunk control and balance (TIS= 0.0083 & TUG= <0.001) at the end of the protocol. Conclusion: The study revealed that there is significant improvement in trunk control in both group but more significant improvement in trunk control and balance in TTE group compared to PNF.
