Abstract
Relevance. Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the leading causes of childhood disability requiring long-term multidisciplinary rehabilitation. The limitations of conventional approaches necessitate the implementation of integrative methods based on the principles of neuroplasticity. Aim. To evaluate the effectiveness of the Montessori method in the complex rehabilitation of school-age children with cerebral palsy.Materials and methods. A prospective clinical-analytical study included 100 children with cerebral palsy aged 7–17 years. The GMFCS scale, the Modified Ashworth Scale, and QUEST were used. The observation period was 6 months.Results. A statistically significant improvement in motor function, a reduction in spasticity, and an increase in upper limb functionality were found (p<0.05).Conclusions. The Montessori method demonstrates clinical effectiveness as a component of comprehensive rehabilitation in children with cerebral palsy.
