Brain and body training for children with cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a therapy that combines thinking, sensing, and movement exercises for children with cerebral palsy. It aims to improve motor skills and daily function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 6 and 12 years old.
- Your child has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy by a specialist.
- Your child can follow simple instructions and take part in therapy sessions.
- Your child can focus attention and is at level 2 or 3 on the Gross Motor Function Classification Scale (this means they can walk with some limits).
- Your child is at level 2 or 3 on the Manual Ability Classification System (this means they can handle objects with some difficulty).

This study tests whether special 'brain gym' exercises help improve movement in children with cerebral palsy. It focuses on kids with mild spasticity on one side of the body, and may help improve their daily function.
This study tests a combination of brain stimulation and movement training to see if it can improve muscle control and brain activity in children with spastic cerebral palsy. It may help children move better and improve their quality of life.
This study tests an intensive sensory training 'camp' for children with cerebral palsy that affects one side. The goal is to improve how the child feels and uses their hand for everyday activities and participation.
This trial tests if robot-assisted training helps improve motor skills in children with cerebral palsy who can walk without major aids. It compares them to children without brain injuries.
This trial tests an intensive therapy program that trains both hands together to improve hand use in children with cerebral palsy. It may help your child with everyday hand and arm skills, but it also requires meeting certain health, eye, and recent-treatment limits.
This study looks at how people’s arm/hand movement and attention-thinking skills work after brain injury or cerebral palsy. You might be invited to tasks and simple instructions to help researchers understand function and possible support strategies.
