Table 1. Some important treatment approaches used by pediatric physical therapists.

Techniques Description
Bobath approaches This neurodevelopmental therapy is utilized to improve specific developmental stages, postural deformity or aberrant patterns, as well as to improve sensory input.  
Motor learning Infants with cerebral palsy typically benefit from this practice.
The Margaret Rood approach This approach uses both superficial and deep stimulation to stimulate motor activity.  
The Doman-Delecto technique It uses steady, repeating motions of patterns of natural sequential development movement to stimulate the brain's dormant central nervous system pathways.  
The Kabat-Knott-Voss technique It uses practical movement patterns to facilitate proprioceptive neuromuscular function.
