Cerebral palsy (CP) is a non-progressive mobility and postural disease that affects fetal and infant development. It is the outcome of an insult to the developing brain prior to, during, or after birth. Worldwide, cerebral palsy is the main cause of childhood disability. Physiotherapy has long been used to manage children with cerebral palsy, which is characterized by a motor deficit. Physiotherapy for this condition aims to improve function, movement, and maximize the child's potential. Some of the procedures employed include neurodevelopmental techniques, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, Treatment options include exercise treatment, hydrotherapy, body weight support treadmill training, sensory integration training, and constraints-induced therapy. However, physiotherapy is often suggested by all members of the healthcare team. However, the effectiveness of physiotherapy varies. This evaluation summarizes the effectiveness of a regularly used physiotherapy method for managing children with cerebral palsy.
