Examination of the Acute Effect of Mollii Suit in Children With Cerebral Palsy

The aim of our study is to examine the acute effect of Mollii Suit application on balance and muscle tone problems in children with spastic cerebral palsy.

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the most common developmental disorder in childhood. Individuals' independence in daily living activities and participation in education, games, social and community activities are restricted. Technology applications in the field of rehabilitation are gaining momentum. EXOPULSE Mollii Suit method, one of the newest rehabilitation technology products, is a non-invasive neuromodulation approach with a garment that covers the whole body and electrodes placed inside. Designed to improve motor function by reducing spasticity and pain, the method is based on the principle of reciprocal inhibition, which occurs by stimulating the antagonist of a spastic muscle at low frequencies and intensities. Therefore, the aim of our study is to examine the acute effect of Mollii Suit application on balance and muscle tone problems in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
