Children with CP have various impairments including neuromuscular and musculoskeletal problems such as spasticity, dyscoordination, loss of selective motor control, and weakness. CP can be classified according to the severity of motor deficits as mild, moderate, or severe. Several other classification systems exist based on the pathophysiology, etiology, and distribution of motor deficits. The aim of the study to evaluate the effects of functional massage and myofascial stretch on spasticity and motor function of CP Children. Study will be conducted in 22 patients in experimental and control group. Pre and Post values will be evaluated. The tools used will be Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) and Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM). The significance of this study is that it will define for us that to how much extent we can improve the Spastic and painful condition of lower limb of CP child. Data will be analyzed using SPSS 22.0 mean and standard deviation will be calculated.
