Abstract

It should primarily be recognized that infantile motor development involves a variety of processes that change continually in the rest of their lives. Differing according to individuals and genetic factors, the development process is highly influenced by the interrelation between “Growth and Learning” in various living environments. It is important for clinical intervention of patients with cerebral palsy to know that appropriate stimuli on sensorimotor function play an essential role in inducing normal motor development. Those stimuli should therefore be confirmed in a honest and careful way. We should try every means possible to prevent abnormal motor development of the patients, to heighten their residual function, and to widen the living spheres. Those would help the patients to obtain independent lives and to foster sociality.
