* got the ADL and kinetic activities training 30 minutes, 3 times/week for 8 weeks
Vojta therapy
Vojta therapy is an old treatment method which was discovered by Professor Vaclav Vojta, a neurologist and pediatrician. It has been used to treat children with impair motor function in Thailand since 2011. Vojta therapy encourage the movement of children via positioning and stimulate the specified zone.
