High Tone Power Therapy for Hemiparetic Cerebral Palsy Children

Balance reactions and postural control are inadequate in children with CP which affect their daily living activities. So, different treatment modalities have been used to improve balance for cerebral palsy children. Recently, High tone power therapy is a new quantum leap in the field of electro therapy that can be used to stimulate nerves and muscles, so this randomized controlled study will be conducted to investigate the effect of high tone power therapy on balance and quality of life in hemiparetic cerebral palsy children.
