1- Reciprocal electrical stimulation
A specialized programmable electrical stimulation device was used (Uniphy is the manufacturer of Phyaction787; Uniphy, Eindhoven, the Netherlands). The device has two channels that can alternatively stimulate two opposing groups of muscles (reciprocate).
TheraTogs orthotic treatment
A sleeveless top vest and two pairs of shorts with two thigh cuffs and limb cuffs each make up the TheraTogs strapping system which is applied to the children in the TheraTogs group. The TheraTogs suit is providing breathable, comfortable- Latex over the torso and thigh, as well as free toileting. For infection control and size fitting problems, participants are not allowed to share their TheraTogs with other patients. TheraTog's orthotic undergarment and strapping system were worn under their regular clothes, so it was neither distracting nor irritating.
