Brief Summary
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a permanent neurological disorder that affects movement and posture, caused by an injury to the developing brain. It may also be accompanied by cognitive, hearing, and speech impairments, as well as epilepsy. Although it is a condition that manifests in childhood, its effects persist throughout life, posing specific challenges in mobility and functionality during adulthood. Although physiotherapy is a key component in the rehabilitation of children with CP and helps adults manage pain and improve motor function, many adults with CP do not receive the treatment they need. Barriers such as financial difficulties, transportation issues, and the lack of physiotherapists specialized in CP affect both access to and the quality of care. Even when physiotherapy is provided, adults with CP are often less satisfied with the services compared to children.The aim of this study is to promote the recovery of motor function in adults with cerebral palsy through sensory stimulation of the lower limbs, as part of an intensive motor rehabilitation program. This program seeks to foster autonomy in movements and transfers, as well as active participation in daily life activities.
