Music therapy for focus and walking in children with cerebral palsy
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether listening to music during physical therapy sessions helps children with cerebral palsy focus better and walk more easily. If your child is 5 to 7 years old and can walk, they may benefit from a more engaging therapy experience.

This study tests different therapy methods to help children with cerebral palsy walk better. It focuses on improving their walking pattern and may offer a structured program to support your child's movement.
This study tests whether a special sensory walkway (a textured surface that stimulates the feet) can help children with diplegic cerebral palsy (a condition affecting movement in both legs) walk better and with improved coordination. The goal is to see if this training improves gait patterns and overall walking ability.
This trial tests a special walking training that uses sensors and feedback to help children with hemiplegia (weakness on one side of the body) improve their walking. It may help your child walk better and more smoothly.
This study tests an activity-based walking program for children with cerebral palsy who do not walk much or at all. The program uses a harness system to support the child while they practice walking. The goal is to see if this therapy helps improve mobility.
This trial tests a special exercise program (Universal Exercise Unit) plus task-focused training for children with spastic cerebral palsy. It aims to help with walking, balance, and daily activities.
This study compares two types of walking exercises to see which one better improves how children with cerebral palsy walk. It may help your child walk more evenly and with less effort.
