A recent study in Developmental Medicine and Child Neurology reports that there was no significant difference in outcomes when comparing intermittent PT for children with CP (1-2x/week x 30 weeks) to continuous PT (4x/week with 6 week break for 30 weeks).  Both groups increased scores on the Gross Motor Function Measure.
