IntroductionIt is essential to link the theoretical framework of any neurophysiotherapy approach with a detailed analysis of the central motor control mechanisms that influence motor behavior. Vojta therapy (VT) falls within interventions aiming to modify neuronal activity. Although it is often mistakenly perceived as exclusively pediatric, its utility spans various functional disorders by acting on central pattern modulation. This study aims to review the existing evidence on the effectiveness of VT across a wide range of conditions, both in the adult population and in pediatrics, and analyze common therapeutic mechanisms, focusing on motor control modulation.AimThe goals of this systematic review are to delineate the existing body of evidence concerning the efficacy of Vojta therapy (VT) in treating a broad range of conditions, as well as understand the common therapeutic mechanisms underlying VT with a specific focus on the neuromodulation of motor control parameters.MethodsPubMed, Cochrane Library, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and Embase databases were searched for eligible studies. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed using the PEDro list and the Risk-Of-Bias Tool to assess the risk of bias in randomized trials. Methodological quality was evaluated using the Risk-Of-Bias Tool for randomized trials. Random-effects meta-analyses with 95% CI were used to quantify the change scores between the VT and control groups. The certainty of our findings (the closeness of the estimated effect to the true effect) was evaluated using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE).ResultsFifty-five studies were included in the qualitative analysis and 18 in the meta-analysis. Significant differences in cortical activity (p = 0.0001) and muscle activity (p = 0.001) were observed in adults undergoing VT compared to the control, as well as in balance in those living with multiple sclerosis (p < 0.03). Non-significant differences were found in the meta-analysis when evaluating gross motor function, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, height, and head circumference in pediatrics.ConclusionAlthough current evidence supporting VT is limited in quality, there are indications suggesting its potential usefulness for the treatment of respiratory, neurological, and orthopedic pathology. This systematic review and meta-analysis show the robustness of the neurophysiological mechanisms of VT, and that it could be an effective tool for the treatment of balance in adult neurological pathology. Neuromodulation of motor control areas has been confirmed by research focusing on the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the therapeutic efficacy of VT.Systematic Review Registration:https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?RecordID=476848, CRD42023476848.

IntroductionStudies of the effect of physical activity on indicators of physical and social health, as well as communication skills remain relevant owing to the lack of clear recommendations regarding the types, organization, and substantive content of sports and exercise interventional programs, as well as means of physical education (PE) effective for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) treatment and correction and improving the participants’ quality of life.MethodsStudies of the effect of physical activity on indicators of physical and social health, as well as communication skills remain relevant owing to the lack of clear recommendations regarding the types, organization, and substantive content of sports and exercise interventional programs, as well as means of physical education (PE) effective for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) treatment and correction and improving the participants’ quality of life.ResultsIn the scientific studies of 2000–2019 concerning the effect of applying PE programs for children with ASD, the participants were usually heterogeneous in age, level of functional capabilities, and intelligence quotient. The duration of the experiment was short (8–14 weeks); the frequency of interventions was different, the training sessions lasted 45–60 minutes. PE activities with proven effectiveness were swimming and water games, running, walking, imitation of riding, elements of yoga and oriental martial arts.ConclusionsIt is worth conducting a randomized study with a representative sample, within a group of the same age, intelligence quotient, daily physical activity, functional capabilities that would investigate indicators of all groups (physical, cognitive, behavioural, communicative) in an integrated manner, with a particular focus on those that are of interest to practice

Introduction. To develop the technique for physical rehabilitation of children with congenital clubfoot. To prove the positive influence of physical rehabilitation available to correct disorders in children with congenital clubfoot. Methods. The pedagogical experiment involved 68 preschool children aged 4-5 years with congenital clubfoot, who were divided into the control 1 (n = 34) and main (n = 34) groups. At the beginning of the study, the children were treated and were classified in the 'd' register by the children's orthopaedist. Peers without developmental disorders (n = 34) constituted the control group 2. Results. The physical rehabilitation technique based on the methods of functional status diagnosis, purpose, content, and physical rehabilitation program included 3 stages of implementation. The basic technique components of physical rehabilitation experimentally verified its effect on correcting the basic disease and functional status of children with congenital clubfoot. The emphasis was placed on the active involvement of parents, establishing close and trusting relationships with them. Parents are taught to correctly apply physical rehabilitation. They have mastered the skills required for the organization of physical rehabilitation at home. Conclusions. The technique was based on physical rehabilitation purpose, objectives, and adequate principles. it also discloses the specific organization and methodology of physical rehabilitation in congenital clubfoot. The guiding direction is to achieve physical rehabilitation of motor activity and functional status of children with congenital clubfoot to the level of their peers without disabilities.
