Clinical Trial Description

Group A: whole body vibration therapy group This group will be provided with whole body vibration therapy in spastic cerebral palsy children. Exercise will be conducted 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Pre and post session functional mobility and balance will be measured by pediatric balance scale and time up and go test. Along routine physical therapy such as stretching exercise of achilles tendon, hamstring muscles, hip flexors and adductors, shoulder internal rotators, and wrist flexors, pronators, and ulnar deviator etc. Group B: BOSU ball training group This group will be provided with both sides up ball BOSU training in spastic cerebral palsy children. Exercise will be conducted 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Pre and post session functional mobility and balance will be measured by pediatric balance scale and time up and go test. Along routine physical therapy such as stretching exercise of achilles tendon, hamstring muscles, hip flexors and adductors, shoulder internal rotators, and wrist flexors, pronators, and ulnar deviator etc. ;
