Diplegia is the most common form of spastic CP. A white matter infarct in the periventricular areas caused by hypoxia can lead to spastic diplegic CP. The spring walk way is a new approach that may enable the child to walk on it. Antigravity shoes are shoes for children fitted with trampoline-like springs. They were billed as "mini-trampolines for feet". The purpose: Was to determine the difference between the effect of spring walk way and antigravity shoes on kinematics gait parameters in children with spastic diplegia. Subjects: Forty-five spastic diplegic children of both gender participated in this study; they were divided randomly into three equal groups (group A, group B and group C). Materials: The children in the group A received the traditional physical therapy program for diplegic children in addition to gait training program, three times per week for three months. Children in group B received the same physical therapy program in addition to gait training on the spring walk way. Children in group C received the same traditional program in addition to gait training by antigravity shoes. Methods: Three groups were evaluated before and after the treatment programs by Tracker Video Analysis and Modeling Tool UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
