Summary

This study tests whether adding a sensory walkway to standard physical therapy can improve walking in children aged 5-7 with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. 44 participants will either receive conventional therapy alone or conventional therapy plus sensory walkway training for three months. Researchers will measure changes in gait speed, step width, and cadence.

Active substance

sensory walkway training

What this could lead to

If it works, this could offer a simple, non-drug way to improve walking speed and coordination in children with cerebral palsy.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage study with only 44 participants. The sensory walkway is added to standard therapy, so any benefit may be modest and may not apply to all children with CP.
