Activities-based Locomotor Training Program Versus Traditional Physical Therapy in Children With Cerebral Palsy

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of an intensive activities-based locomotor training program as compared to traditional physical therapy on activity, participation, and central and peripheral neurophysiological adaptation in children with cerebral palsy.

Observational research will be performed to assess the change in outcome measure scores over time among participants after the AB-LT intervention. Outcome measures will be obtained 4 times, occurring every 3 weeks over a period of 9 weeks: pre-intervention, post-intervention, pre-traditional therapy, and post-traditional therapy. A washout period of 3 weeks will occur between the AB-LT intervention and traditional therapy.
