The Bobath approach aims to enhance postural and neuromotor control goal-directedly, leading to functional improvement. Our study selected the Bobath 30 exercises from the fundamental exercises to create a program specific to the goal and targeting functionality.

The ten Bobath exercises performed by all participants in the study are as follows: Bridging Exercise, Latissimus Stretch Exercise, Autoinhibition Exercise, Dorsiflexion Training, Sitting Balance Training, Upper Extremity Weight Shifting Exercise, Lower Extremity Weight Shifting Exercise, Oblique Abdominal Strengthening Exercise, Knee Control Training, and Walking Training.

Spasticity is a method used to determine the severity of spasticity. The assessment is based on the subjective rating of the resistance felt by the evaluator during the evaluation. It is divided into six degrees: 0 = Normal muscle tone, 1 = Slight increase in muscle tone with minimal resistance felt at the end of the range of motion, 1+ = Minimal resistance felt in less than half of the range of motion, 2 = more pronounced increase in muscle tone but affected parts can be moved without difficulty, 3 = Passive movement is complex and requires significant effort, with a noticeable increase in muscle tone, 4 = Affected parts are rigid in flexion and extension, with severe increase in tone.
