Starting Posture * Start and evaluate the supreme effective posture to move from(usually straight) * Reassemble to mid plane (head/trunk) * Neutral position of body (47) Identify the Missing Components Detect starting posture and compare to normal.(47) Neurodevelopmental therapy application : Tonic postural extensor muscle strengthening: Push-pull scooter board games contrary to resistive tubing strips.(48) 2. Developmental movement patterns training: Obstacle crawl, hold swing's ropes in kneeling and half kneeling position, throw balls to aim kneeling and standing position. Manual Cues .Use hands on key points of control to assist normal posture, movement and prevent abnormal posture and movement. Balance and corrective reactions was established by means of ball and tilt board after the development of the skill of li
