The document discusses the use of dynamic splinting in the treatment of children with cerebral palsy. It describes how dynamic splinting aims to improve muscle tone, range of motion, and functional skills through the controlled movement of joints. Dynamic splinting programs are designed based on each child's specific needs and may incorporate low-load prolonged stretching, advanced range of motion, or electrical stimulation. Research studies have found dynamic splinting can effectively improve spasticity, contractures, and motor development in children with cerebral palsy.
