简要总结
to investigate and compare between effectiveness of Universal Exercise Unit and Rebound Therapy on genu recurvatum, muscle strength, balance, functional mobility and quality of life in spastic cerebral palsy children
详细描述
Children will be equally assigned into three groups using simple randomization, control group, study group (A) and study group (B). Each group will consist of 20 children with spastic CP to overcome any drop out may occur.
Control group: Children in this group will receive a traditional physical therapy program.
Study group (A): Children in this group will receive a traditional physical therapy program in addition to universal exercise unit program.
Study group (B): Children in this group will receive the same traditional physical therapy program in addition to rebound therapy.
Evaluation will be carried out for each child individually before and after 3 months of treatment.
