Effects of extracorporeal shock wave treatment on the muscle tone and static stability of gastrocnemius muscle according to the energy level in children with cerebral palsy
Abstract:Purpose This study investigates the effects of extracorporeal shock wave treatment on the muscle tone and static stability of gastrocnemius muscle according to the energy amount in adolescent with spastic cerebral palsy. Methods The low energy group(n=9) and high energy group(n=9) to which extracorporeal shock wave was applied were randomly selected. The muscle tones of all subjects were measured before intervention, immediately after intervention, and 5 min after intervention. The static stability was measure… Show more
