Various intervention studies; reported positive results with EDYDM after carpal tunnel syndrome, myofascial trigger point, chronic low back pain, nonspecific thoracic spine pain, ankle instability, mastectomy and total joint arthroplasty. Observational studies have shown positive results in improving posterior shoulder range of motion, hip, knee, and ankle ROM.~There is no study in the literature with EDYDM in patients with CP. Many of the problems in which EDDM is applied for fascia and muscle mobilization in different diseases are also seen in patients with CP. In current rehabilitation methods, Stretching Exercises are applied for muscle and fascia shortening. The advantages of the applications over each other are unknown. Our study is planned as a study with high original value as it is the first study to be conducted using EDYDM in cases with CP. In our study, the effectiveness of EDYDM treatment, which will increase the effectiveness of stretching exercises in CP or can be an alternative treatment approach in cases with CP, will be compared with Stretching Exercises.
The aim of the study; To investigate the effects of Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilizations and Stretching Exercises on flexibility, spasticity, balance and functional mobility in patients with CP.
