Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the effect of vestibular rehabilitation therapy program on the visual and motor functions in children with dyspraxia. Method: Twelve children with dyspraxia from both genders, aged from 4 to 12 years, are included in this study. All of them had movement dyspraxia affecting their ability to stand and walk alone according to chick list of developmental dyspraxia. Also, they had level 2 or 3 of visual function level. They received vestibular rehabilitation therapy program in addition to traditional physical therapy program, for three times/ week, for three months. Visual and gross motor functions were assessed before and after three months of treatment using Hoyt’s levels of visual function and Peabody Developmental Motor Scale (PDMS- 2) respectively. Results: Results showed highly significant improvement in visual function level and gross motor functions for the study group when comparing it’s results before and after three months of treatment (P {u2264} 0.05). Conclusion: Vestibular rehabilitation therapy program is an effective modality for improving visual and motor functions in children with dyspraxia
