ABSTRACT
The concept known as neurokinesiological diagnostics and therapy was developed in the 1950s by Vaclav Vojta for children with disturbances of motor development originating in the central nervous system. This concept was founded on earlier observations small children. The study of motor behavior enabled Vojta to make a through evaluation and comparison of motor functioning in CP patients and in healthy newborns and infants, which led him to the discovery of the similarity between motor patterns and primitive reflexes in children with immature brains and in those with brain damage.
