Methods Forty children with spastic cerebral palsy on bilateral lower limb were selected in our study. The children were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,20 children in each group. Both the two groups were accepted rehabilitation training by neurodevelopmental therapy,while the treatment group was received SET as cooperate cure based on the neurodevelopmental therapy. The changes of muscle tension and ADL on the one and three months after treatment were observed. Results On the one and three months after treatment,the remission of muscle tension and improvement of ADL score were better than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant( P 0. 01). Conclusion SET combined with neurodevelopmental therapy can relieve the muscle tension,and improve the ADL of children with spastic cerebral palsy.Read More
