  3. Goal: To evaluate effect of sling exercise therapy for functional and physical endurance in children with physical disability D. Gedrimas Effect of sling exercise therapy for functional and physical endurance in children with physical disability

  4. Planning of the research • Research took place in Šiauliai special education center. • Duration – 8 weeks. • 5 children, 6 – 11 years old, with physical disability. • Duration of one procedure – 20min., 3 times per week. • Exercises for quadriceps femoris, hamstrings and abdominal muscles strength.

  11. Change of walking distance * - relation between beginning and ending , p<0,05; ** - relation between middle and ending, p<0,05; *** - relation between beginning and middle, p<0,05. D. Gedrimas Effect of sling exercise therapy for functional and physical endurance in children with physical disability

  12. Conclusions • Because of sling exercise therapy gross motor functions of children with physical disability were better. • Increase of walking distance shows that there was also increase of physical endurance. • These exercises helped to increase range of motion of hip and knee joints.
