Summary

The long-term goal of this project is to assess the impact of the novel sensory stimulation technique in enhancing outcomes of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in children with cerebral palsy. This is a pilot project.

Eligibility Criteria

  • Between the ages of 3 and 9

  • Use the affected extremity as a gross assist during play and self-care activities.
  • No significant developmental delays that would limit spontaneous use of the more affected extremity.
  • Be ambulatory for their age and demonstrate intact balance and protective reactions throughout the less involved upper extremity.
  • No other health impairment other than hemiparesis.
