ABOUT  VOJTA

Between 1950 and 1970, Professor Václav Vojta, physician and pediatrician nervous system, had developed the Vojta Principle which currently uses in patient care muscular system, orthopedic, neurological and pediatric patients. Prof. Vojta discovered the bases of reflex locomotion while searching for treatment possibilities for young people with cerebral palsy and spastic paralysis, which using specific stimuli with the appropriate stance of urging it can provoke a reaction automated movement of the arm legs and body of the person being stimulated which the reaction response is the same every time. Moreover, it also found that the pattern of movement of the body as a result of responses to stimulation are the characteristics that are essential to moving forward such as walking and crawling which he hypothesized that the formation of these bodies are congenital. The discovery is fundamental to the development of holistic therapy to infants, children and adults with mobility impairments and it also the rudiment for the development of diagnostic systems for screening children with posture and movement disorders in their early stages.

The strength of emotion

The Vojta Therapy encourages to positive changes of the movement which can be seen from how children used to grip the objects, the buoyancy of standing, walking and talking. The result after treatment is the children can express their needs more easily and cheerful. The older child commented that after treatment with this technique he felt the movement "lighten up." In positive feeling, it’s the fundamental to better communication with others. Furthermore, parents can use this treatment as the association with children by passing through the sense of touch which produces more stability of relationship between parents and children.

At the present, there is a production team of physiotherapists and doctors from around the world with technical training directly to Vojta therapy from International Vojta Organization (International Vojta Gesellschafte.V. – IVG).
