Abstract
The objective of the present work was to study dynamics of the cognitive function in the school-age children presenting with a natal injury in the cervical region of the spine in the course of the combined spa and health resort-based treatment with the use of manual therapy based at a health resort facility. THE PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 110 schoolchildren at the age from 8 to 15 years (mean age 13.0 ± 0.4 years) were examined during the residual period of a natal injury in the cervical region of the spine. All the participants of the study were divided into to randomized groups. The main group was comprised of 55 school-age children (mean age 13.0 ± 0.4 years) given the comprehensive spa and health resort-based treatment with the application of manual therapy and the group of comparison that contained the remaining 55 schoolchildren (mean age 13.0 ± 0.4 years) who received the same balneotherapeutic treatment but without manual therapy. We analyzed the indicators of cognitive function after the application of manual therapy in 55 children and adolescents aged from 8 to 15 years who underwent the natal trauma to the cervical spine associatedwith the symptoms of postural disorders of varying severity. The article presents the results of the analysis of cognitive function dynamics in the children and adolescents under the influence of the combined spa and health resort-based treatment with the use of manual therapy of functional blocks. It was shown that the combined spa and health resort-based rehabilitative treatment with the use of the manual therapeutic techniques makes it possible to significantly improve the condition of the cervical spine and exerts the positive influence on the dynamics of the cognitive function, has beneficial effect on the mental and motor functions, increases the flexibility and backup capabilities of the nervous system, and may be instrumental in resolving the problems arising from school disadaptation.
