Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To detect the effect of kinesio -tape on balance in children with spastic diplegia.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The use of Kinesio Taping might influence the cutaneous receptors of the sensory motor system, resulting in the improvement of voluntary control and coordination in a physiotherapy program for children with CP. (Yasukawa et al., 2006).

The study will be conducted To investigate the effect of kinesiotape applied on dorsi fexors muscles on improving balance in spastic diplegic children .
