Summary

In this we are comparing efficacy of sensory integration therapy as an adjunct to standard care with standard care alone in improving gross motor skills in cerebral palsy children with sensory processing abnormalities.Existing literature points towards presence of sensory processing abnormalities in children with cerebral palsy.However, there is lack of robust evidence for usefulness of sensory integration therapy in cerebral palsy children .Standard therapy outcome in improving functional motor skills, adaptive responses are variable in children with cerebral palsy.Sensory integration therapy in addition to standard therapy may further improve adaptive and functional motor skills in children with cerebral palsy.

Conditions

  • Cerebral Palsy

Interventions

OTHER

SIT

sensory integration therapy along with standard therapy. Primary care giver will be trained to perform sensory integration therapy at home. . Sensory interventions will include maneuvers for both hypo and hyper-reactive behaviors in five senses as tactile, vestibular, proprioception, vision and auditory using a sensory integration kit and other items available at home Daily sessions of approx 60 minutes/ day with each sensory stimulus given for 10-30 minutes 6 days in a week will be done.
