Objective: To investigate the effect of VOJTA therapy on gross motor function in
children with cerebral palsy. Methods: The 86 children with cerebral
palsy were all from the First People’s Hospital of Jingzhou City from January
2023-December
2023, and were divided into the control group and the study group with 43 cases
according to the principle of voluntariness. Results: In terms of total
effective rate of treatment, the gross motor function scale-88 (GMFM-88) was
used to evaluate the effective rate before and after treatment, and the
effective rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically <significant, and the scores of gross motor items of
GMFM-88 were better than those of the control group after treatment, and the
difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The application of VOJTA therapy in the treatment of children with cerebral
palsy can not only promote the rehabilitation of gross motor function, but also
help to improve the treatment effect, and the earlier the treatment, the
better.
