First seen Mar 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 09, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study will compare two common physical therapy methods—Bobath (neurodevelopmental treatment) and functional physiotherapy—to see which one better improves arm strength and trunk control in 40 children with cerebral palsy aged 4 to 12. Participants will receive one of the two therapies, and researchers will use wearable sensors to measure changes in movement quality. The goal is to help therapists choose the most effective approach for each child.
