Fun-core exercises for balance in children with cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests if fun, child-friendly core stabilization exercises can improve balance and movement in children with spastic cerebral palsy. It may help kids who can walk with or without assistance.

This study tests whether a type of exercise called plyometric training (jumping and hopping) can improve strength, movement control, and balance in children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy. It may help children who have mild spasticity and can walk on their own.
This study tests whether a water-based exercise program can help improve balance in children who have spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. It may be a good option if your child can walk with or without help and is comfortable in the water.
This study tests whether core strengthening exercises can improve balance and posture in children with a specific type of cerebral palsy that affects the legs. It aims to help kids move more steadily and easily.
This study tests whether special core (belly and back) exercises can help improve standing balance, walking, and movement in children with diplegic cerebral palsy. It is designed for children who can already walk and have mild to moderate leg tightness.
