Summary

In our randomized controlled study, which aims to investigate the contribution of Action Observation Therapy to rehabilitation by examining the effect of Action Observation Therapy on spasticity, gross motor function, balance and participation in children with spastic diplegic and hemiplegic cerebral palsy, the effectiveness of Action Observation Therapy to be applied in the home environment and accompanied by a physiotherapist will be investigated.

Conditions

  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Spastic Diplegia Cerebral Palsy
  • Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy

Interventions

OTHER

action observation therapy

Action Observation Therapy (AOT) is among the neurorehabilitation approaches that enable motor learning by facilitating neuroplasticity. AOT is based on neuroscience and activation of the mirror neuron system. AOT occurs in the form of the observer following the motor action and performing the observed actions after observing the actions. AOT aims to improve different motor functions by providing motor learning through neuroplasticity activation.
