Data were analyzed using the paired t-test. The results showed that 29 volunteers participated in the study. After using the platform, significant improvements were found in balance test results measured by the Smart Balance software during single-leg standing on both the non-dominant and dominant legs, as well as in the Timed Up and Go (TUG) and Sit-to-Stand (STS) tests, with statistical significance at p=0.001. There was also a significant correlation between increased TUG scores and improvements measured by the Smart Balance software during single-leg standing on the non-dominant leg (r=0.772, p<0.001) and the dominant leg (r=0.566, p=0.001).
