Summary
This study aims to investigate the effect of suit therapy combined with dual-task training on gross motor performance and walking abilities in children with diplegic cerebral palsy.
Detailed description
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a non-progressive motor impairment syndrome caused by brain defects or lesions that occur in an immature brain before, during, or within two years after birth. Therapeutic approaches for CP include neurodevelopmental treatment, Vojta therapy, sensory integration therapy, and conductive education. Specific therapeutic strategies for CP may differ, but they all aim to improve the independence of children with CP. Suit therapy is a relatively new and experimental form of therapy designed to help those with cerebral palsy improve muscle tone, posture, and movements.
