Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Goniometer
It measured cervical range of motion.
Readings were taken at baseline and four months of intervention
Muscle function Scale:
MFS is a tool used to check the function of the lateral flexors, a scale of 0 to 5, with higher scores indicating better function of muscles.Readings were taken at baseline and after four months of intervention of the neck in children,
Readings were taken at baseline and four months of intervention
Study Arms (2)
The TAMO therapy
EXPERIMENTALFor four months, TAMO therapy will last 30 minutes every day, twice a week. The therapist first applies light loading for a short period of time to his left hemiocciput directed toward the supporting surface.
Postural Control exercises
EXPERIMENTALFor four months, posture control exercises will be taught twice a week for 30 minutes each time. Under the age of 3 months, infants were required to shift their chin as far to the affected side and upward in the supine or dominant prone posture before they could regulate their neck. Instead of passively adjusting the newborns' heads, we waited for them to actively turn toward their midline.
