The Effect of Spinal Manipulation on Heart Rate Variability in Children With Cerebral Palsy.

This randomized, sham-controlled crossover trial aims to evaluate the immediate effects of spinal manipulation on heart rate variability in children with cerebral palsy. Each participant will attend four experimental sessions conducted on separate days. In two sessions, spinal manipulation will be performed, and in two sessions, a sham procedure will be applied. The order of interventions will be randomized for each participant. Heart rate variability will be recorded before and after each intervention.
