Abstract

To discuss the efficacy of acupuncture,electro-acupuncture and exercise therapy as combined therapy to improve gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy.Methords: Treating 35 cases of children with cerebral palsy by acupuncture,electro-acupuncture and exercise therapy,and assess gross motor function of 35 cases by GMFM scale before and after treatment.Results: After three courses of treatment,the GMFM total percentage of 35 cases rises from 35.37±34.99 to 51.09 ±28.93(P 0.05).Conclusion: acupuncture,electro-acupuncture and exercise therapy for children with cerebral palsy can improve gross motor function,but we need to select acupuncture pionts and prescription according to the different types of cerebral palsy and different developmental levels of children with CP.
