Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common childhood motor disability. Weakness, spasticity, and loss of dexterity are the major problems in patients with CP. A novel virtual cycling training (VCT) program for lower limb was to enhance promising muscle strength through promoting the participant compliance and motivation. Sensory electrical stimulation(SES) of whole hand is a novel technique and is commonly used to treatment of spasticity for patients with stroke. Constraint-induced therapy (CIT) is a method for treating developmental disregard and learned non-use of affected limb and improving motor efficiency, functional performance, and activities of daily living for patients with CP.
