Sensory motor trainingTraditional physical therapy
Sensory motor training: Each session will be composed of 10 minutes of warm-up, followed by 50-60 minutes of sensory motor exercises, followed by 5-10 minutes of cool down.
Traditional physical therapy: traditional physical therapy program in form of stretching exercises, strengthening exercises, scar management, and gait training

Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients will suffer from foot \"planter surface\" second degree thermal burn (Partial thickness).
* Patients who have undergone skin grafting and those who have not undergone skin grafting are both eligible for inclusion in the study.
* Patients will begin the training program after complete wound healing.
* Patients will be given their informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Patients who had an open wound at or near treatment site.

Primary outcome measure(s)
The Pedoscan system — "At baseline and after 8 weeks of intervention" It will be used to assess the foot weight distribution. Under the guidance of the evaluator, the subjects will stand with bare feet upon a part marked on the platform with eyes closed.
The biodex balance system — "At baseline and after 8 weeks of intervention" It will be used to assess the postural stability during assessment; participants will stand comfortably on the platform barefoot, with arms at their sides, for 30 seconds.
