Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Experimental group
A registered chiropractor will assess the entire spine, and both sacroiliac joints will be assessed for vertebral subluxation by a registered chiropractor. The clinical indicators that will be used to assess the function of the spine before spinal adjustment intervention include assessing for joint tenderness to palpation manually palpating for a restricted intersegmental range of motion, assessing for palpable asymmetric intervertebral muscle tension, and any abnormal or blocked joint play and end-feel of the joints.
Chiropractic Care

The clinical indicators that will be used to assess the function of the spine before spinal adjustment intervention include assessing for joint tenderness to palpation manually palpating for a restricted intersegmental range of motion, assessing for palpable asymmetric intervertebral muscle tension, and any abnormal or blocked joint play and end-feel of the joints.
Physical therapy intervention
The standardized treatment protocol will be provided according to the guidelines, which will include various modalities and treatment approaches, including stretching exercises; massage; strengthening exercises of weak muscles, weight-bearing, balance (static and dynamic) and gait training; electrical stimulation; treadmill use; and endurance training for the improvement of gait, motor function, strength and functional mobility in Spinal Cord Injuries children, where Conventional Therapy will be provided according to the respective needs of the individual patient.
Control group
The participant's head and/or spine will be moved in ways that include passive and active movements, similar to what is done when assessing the spine by a chiropractor.No spinal adjustment will be performed during any control intervention.
Sham intervention
The participant's head and/or spine will be moved in ways that include passive and active movements, similar to what is done when assessing the spine by a chiropractor. The sham intervention will also include the participants moving into adjustment setup positions similar to how the chiropractor would typically set up a patient with no joint pre-loading or adjustive thrust.
