Hence proper stretching helps in reducing the deformity in the limbs and prepares the child to do self mobility activities. 2. What are the benefits of a daily stretching program    • This prevents the muscles from shortening. • It reduces the stiffness around the joints and thereby increases mobility in the limbs. • Reduces joint pain due to stiffness. • This gradually improves the position of the body and prepares the child for proper mobility. • This prepares the child to balance the body against gravity. • It brings coordination to move objects around him and enhances self-care activities. 3.

THERAPEUTIC INTERVENTION  FOR  "ATAXIC CEREBRAL PALSY" 1. Therapy Program for Ataxic Cerebral Palsy  Ataxia refers to incoordination, problems in balancing or being “without order.” Where, Ataxic cerebral palsy only affects an estimated 5 to 6 percent of cerebral palsy, is caused by injury to the cerebellum and is named for the uncoordinated and uncontrolled movements it causes.  These issues are due to damage to the motor control centers of the developing brain. Children with Ataxic cerebral palsy have a hard time controlling their movements. They are unstable and struggle with precise movements, such as writing and holding small objects. Ataxic CP can affect the hands, feet, eyes and even the ability to speak. Like all other forms of cerebral palsy, Ataxic CP is a developmental disorder that affects the precise movement (motor function) of a specific function of the muscle. Ataxic cerebral palsy is characterized by problems with balance and coordination. Physiother...

The most effective way to promote neuroplasticity is through repetitive practice and task-specific training skills. Consistent therapeutic practice stimulates the brain and encourages neurological adaptations.   Because hypotonic can range from mild to severe, a sustained therapeutic approaches target each individual’s to perform specific motor skills t...
