Summary

This study compares two treatments—special exercises called PNF and music therapy—to see which helps children with ataxic cerebral palsy improve balance, coordination, and daily activities. About 29 children aged 6 to 18 will take part, receiving either PNF or music therapy alongside standard physical therapy for 30 minutes, three times a week. The goal is to find better ways to help these children move more safely and confidently.
