Methods: Fifty elderly women with reduced balance function, admitted to the Qingbar Elderly Care Center of Chongqing Medical University from December 2022 to December 2023, were randomly selected and divided into two groups. The aerobic exercise group (25 patients) received traditional treatment and rehabilitation nursing, while the balance rhythm dance intervention group (25 patients) received the balance rhythm dance intervention in addition to traditional treatment and rehabilitation nursing. The Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) were used as evaluation indicators to compare the intervention effects between the two groups. Results: The data revealed that the balance rhythm dance intervention significantly improved the motor ability and balance function of elderly women in the intervention group (P < 0.01), with statistically significant differences observed. Conclusion: The balance rhythm dance program plays a critical role in promoting the rehabilitation of motor function and balance ability in elderly women, effectively enhancing their quality of life.展开更多
