| Abstract [eng] |
The hypothesis was drawn after having accomplished theoretical analysis of the literature and it assumes that both coordinating and applying massage and exercise programmes to the babies with motoric disorders much better results may be achieved in comparison to massage and exercises applied separately in the same period of time. Purpose of the research is to find out the effectiveness of movement therapy measures applied to the children suffering major motoric failures. The applied research approaches: analysis of the scientific literature; the evaluation of the major motoric failures and calculation of the motoric coefficients (MQ). 30 respondents 0(14 boys and 16 girls) participated in the test. All of them possessed different disorders of motoric development. All the children were grouped into 3 groups at random and all of them received different movement therapy measures. The research covers the period from January to November, 2010.The testing was performed in Pakruojis Hospital, Lithuania. The conclusions of the research are as follows: 1. According to the Munich diagnostic scale of functional development where crawling, sitting and walking are considered, all 3 groups of respondents possessed very similar statistical features. 2. All 3 groups of respondents had almost the same motoric coefficient (MQ) of crawling, sitting and walking. 3. At the end of the test all the functions of crawling, sitting and walking were assessed again using the same Munich diagnostic scale, and every group showed the changes. The first group showed the result of 0,4 a month in 5,2 months. The second group showed the result of 1,4 a month in 5,7 months. The third group developed 1,6 a month inthe period of 6,1 months. 4. All the groups experienced changes.The MQ of the 1st group is 71,4% and the percent of the development 5.9%.MQ of the 2nd group is 83% and the percentage of development is 18,9%. MQ of the 3rd group is 89% and the percentage of development is 24,2%. 5. The best results were achieved coordinating and applying both massage and exercises. The key words: psychomotorics and rehabilitation in early stages. |
