Exercise Study for Youth with Cerebral Palsy

 

Physical therapists at Franciscan Hospital for Children are conducting a study on a technology enhanced home exercise program for youth 12 -18 years with Cerebral Palsy. The exercise program is completed at home 3 times per week for 8 weeks.  We will loan participants an iPad, a heart rate monitor, a pedometer, and exercise equipment including theraband and an aerobic step.  If you are interested in finding out more information about our study, please contact Maria Fragala-Pinkham at mfragala@fhfc.org or (617)254-3800 dial 1 then x2280.
