Thirty spastic diplegic C.P children of both sexes were selected from the out-patient clinic, Faculty of physical therapy, Cairo university and police Hospital. They were assigned randomly into two groups of equal number, (A&B); Group (A) represented the control group; children in this group received regular physical therapy program based on neurodevelopmental approach used for rehabilitation of such patients. Group (B) represented the study group; they received the same regular physical therapy program applied on the control group in addition to 30 min neuromuscular electrical stimulation of abdominal and back muscles. The rehabilitation program was conducted for both groups three times per week over a period of six successive weeks. Both groups were evaluated using biodex stability system and GMFM before starting physical therapy program and after 6 weeks of treatment. The results of this study revealed no statistically significant difference between the two groups before treatment while after 6 weeks of treatment there was significant difference in overall stability index, mediolateral stability index and anteroposterior stability index. The significant difference between the two groups after 6 weeks of treatment was in favor to the study group
