Summary:Conductive education, developed by the 40-ies of the last century, spread around the world in spite the lack of hard scientific evidence for its benefit. There are types of cerebral palsy (athetosis, ataxia) in which conductive education might have the unique role to help. In cerebral palsy of other types it is much helpful if the disturbance of body scheme and degree of somatomotor neglect are superior to the palsy. Short-term results of conductive education are visible in the better movement coordination while the long-term outcome is the increased activities of daily living.
