Summary

This study aims to determine the effects of focal muscle vibration on bio-psychosocial outcomes in subjects with cerebral palsy. Mixed methods will be used and the study will be conducted in 2 phases; 1st phase is determining the effects of intervention, whereas second step is prediction of outcomes. A qualitative gait analysis will also be done.

Conditions

  • Cerebral Palsy

Interventions

DEVICE

Focal muscle vibration

Focal muscle vibration will be provided by a longitudinal muscle vibrator on muscles of lower limb; hamstrings, quadriceps, illiopsoas, calf, gluteus maximus and medius. Each muscle will be targeted 3 times with 30 seconds time period and keeping 10 second interval.

PROCEDURE

Stretching

Stretching of shortened lower extremity muscle

PROCEDURE

Strengthening

Strengthening exercises for weak lower extremity muscles

PROCEDURE

Positioning

Positioning of participant to maintain a good body posture
