Effect of Multisensory Motor Imagery Training on Muscle Performance and Coordination in Children With Spastic Diplegia
PURPOSE: The current study aims to: * Determine the effect of multisensory motor imagery training on muscle performance including (peak torque, work, power) of trunk and knee flexors and extensors in children with spastic diplegia. * Determine the effect of multisensory motor imagery training on coordination, strength and agility in children with spastic diplegia. BACKGROUND: Multisensory motor imagery training has an effect on muscle performance and coordination in children with spastic diplegia HYPOTHESES: There will be no effect of multisensory motor imagery training on muscle performance, coordination and strength and agility in children with spastic diplegic CP. RESEARCH QUESTION: Is there an effect of multisensory motor imagery training on coordination, strength and agility in children with spastic diplegia?
• Their age will be ranged from 8-12 years.
• Mild degree of spasticity ranged from 1 to 1+ according to Modified Ashworth Scale
• Their motor function will be at level I and II according to Gross Motor Function Classification System GMFCS
• They will be able to follow instructions during evaluation and treatment.
