Physiotherapy in Microcephalic Children with Psychomotor Delay

Abstract

The purpose of this paper highlights the fact that movement therapy improves motor skills and balance, with kinetic exercises contributing to sensory and cognitive recovery in 6-year-old children. Following the interaction with patients and the problems they face, including social integration, but also following the bond that is created between physiotherapist and patient, the importance of physiotherapy classes and the beneficial effect they have on mobility, general coordination, fine and gross motor skills, but also on intellectual development is highlighted. Thus, microcephaly is not a condition that can be recovered or remedied.
