Summary

this study will be conducted To determine the effect of vestibular rehabilitation training on postural sway and energy expenditure in children with spastic cerebral palsy and To determine any relation between postural sway and energy expenditure in children with spastic cerebral palsy.

Conditions

  • Spastic Diplegia

Interventions

OTHER

vestibular rehabilitation

* Bouncing-jumping activities from standing. * linear swinging activities: using swinging platform (standing walking) scooter activity (kneeling, standing), hanging lower limb activities and climbing swinging robe ladder. * By pushing-pulling activities, displacement of the center of gravity is created. * These are activities which enable active equilibrium on steep surfaces such as stairs. * Walking on ramps. * Walking unfamiliar surfaces such as balance disc, balance boards and balance beam

OTHER

conventional physical therapy

* Balance exercise. * Gait training (forward, backward and side way). * Gait training with obstacles of different sizes. * Gait training in stepper. * Gait training on wooden ramp. * Gait training on balance board. * Training up and down steps different heights. * Stretching exercise for upper limbs and lower limbs. * Strengthening exercises for lower limbs muscles. * Trunk control exercises like abdominal and back exercises.
