Closely interrelated motoric and sensoric mechanisms are the ones of the main components of the motoric system. Most motoric functions are dependent on integration of sensoric systems. The greatest focus during KT procedures is given to making a movement and postural maintenance, irrespective of the importance of sensoric information. Therefore, sensoric research on the children with cerebral palsy remains relevant and requires more thorough examination.
Purpose of the paper is to overview KT principles applied in case of cerebral palsy and define the influence of kinesitherapy on development of senses and general motorics in 10-15 year old children. The following tasks were set in the paper: 1) To evaluate the sensoric disorder in children with cerebral palsy, depending on the form and type of cerebral palsy; 2) Establish the developmental level of general motorics in children with cerebral palsy; 3) Evaluate influence of KT on development of senses and general motorics in 10-15 year old children with cerebral palsy.
12 children with cerebral palsy took place in the research. Examinees had specific forms of cerebral palsy including spastic hemiplegia, or hemiparesis, spastic diplegia, spastic tetraplegia and type of ataxic palsy. In the course of research, KT procedures had been applied for 9 months. The following research methods were applied in the paper: literary analysis; testing (Assessment Test on the Function of Bodily Movements; Methods of Research on Senses... [to full text]
