Brief Summary:
Spastic cerebral palsy is a neurological condition that causes muscle spasticity and motor impairments greatly impacting a childs ability to maintain balance and control their posture The horse riding simulator HRS inspired by hippo therapy has emerged as a potential therapeutic intervention for enhancing motor function in individuals with cerebral palsy This study explored the additional effects of mirror visual feedback when used in conjunction with the HRS Strategically placed mirrors allow participants to observe their own body movements and positions in real-time The simulators rhythmic multidimensional movements deliver sensory input and challenge the motor system promoting postural adjustments and improved balance Furthermore the integration of mirror visual feedback appears to enhance the therapeutic benefits Real-time visual information enables children to actively observe and correct their body positioning leading to improved body awareness and more efficient motor responses
Detailed Description:
Cerebral palsy CP one of the most common physical disabilities in childhood is a disorder of movement and posture caused by non-progressive lesions in the developing brain Children with CP to varying degrees have muscle weakness tone abnormality and motor-control impairment causing abnormal posture and poor balance controlIn high-income countries the current birth prevalence of cerebral palsy has decreased to 16 per 1000 live births However in low- and middle-income countries the birth prevalence is significantly higher Children diagnosed with CP exhibit a range of muscle weakness tone abnormalities and impaired motor control These factors contribute to abnormal posture and compromised control over balance
