Summary

This study tests whether a remote physiotherapy program, based on the neurodevelopmental treatment (Bobath) model, can improve gross motor skills and daily function in children with cerebral palsy. Twenty children aged 6 months to 6 years will participate, with a caregiver helping during online sessions. The goal is to see if this telerehabilitation approach is a viable option for improving movement and performance at home.

What this could lead to
