Brief Summary: This study aim to investigate the effect of banding on saliva control and quality of life in children with cerebral palsy.
Detailed Description: Cerebral palsy describes a whole set of permanent disorders or disorders in the development of movement and posture, attributed to non-progressive disorders occurring in the developing fetal or infant brain, causing activity limitation. Motor disorders are often accompanied by sensory, perception, communication and behavioral disorders, epilepsy and secondary musculoskeletal problems.

Kinesio Taping has been proven to increase local circulation, reduce local edema and provide a positional stimulus for muscle, skin, or facial structures, regulating sensory input, and activating regions in the brain. KT is currently used to improve oral control in children with neurological and neuromuscular disorders and provides a reduction in saliva flow and frequency. However, knowledge of the potential of using neuromuscular bandages to manage the dribble flow has been limited.
