- (en) Dear Editor, Recent scientific literature supports the use of intensive, activity-based, goal-directed interventions, rather than usual care, to encourage significant motor improvements in children with cerebral palsy (CP) [1], [2], [3]. Among these interventions, the Hand-arm Bimanual Intensive Therapy Including Lower Extremities (HABIT-ILE) proposes the practice of voluntary movement control, with many movement repetitions and progressive shaping in a child-friendly context. In addition to bimanual coordination, it includes continuous stimulation of lower extremities (LEs) and trunk [4]. Few intensive interventions have targeted young children with CP, mainly focusing on the upper extremity (UE) of children with unilateral CP [5], [6], [7], [8]. Therefore, we perceived a need for intensive early interventions targeting the whole spectrum of CP. [...]
