Methodology: A comprehensive search on PUB med, google scholar, and Cochrane library, using keywords like spinal cord injury T6 & below level, balance training, task-specific training, trunk control, standing balance by using AND, OR. Randomized control trials and systematic meta-analysis were taken, published in English between 2008-2022, and reviewed. Results: 23 studies were identified through database searching, and eight articles were selected according to inclusion criteria. The result of this review provides evidence that task-specific exercise program is effective for balance in spinal cord injuries. Conclusion: Based on studies analyzed in the review, task-specific training improves balance, muscle strength, and coordination in spinal cord injury patients through specific tasks.
