Vaclav Vojta had developed a technique for diagnosis and treatment of neuromuscular disorders since 1950. The goal of Vojta technique for diagnosis is to evaulate of development of infant and to determine the main disorder. On the other hand, the aim of therapy technique is to stimulate central nervous system (CNS). Moreover, every stimulation influences functional and anatomic development of CNS. Seven reactions are used for kinesiologic diagnosis called Lage Reaction. We can make a kinesiologic classification using these reactions. Vojta technique is a neurofacilitation technique which is based on reflex locomotion and to forcing neural pathways. Vojta technique can be used for diagnosis and treatment of the children with central coordination disorders.
