The '''Bobath approach''' is an important approach to the [[Rehabilitation]] of patients with neurological injuries. It is named after its inventors: Berta Bobath, a physiotherapist, and her husband Karel, a psychiatrist/neurophysiologist. In the United States the Bobath concept is usually referred to as 'neuro-developmental treatment'. It is based on the brain's ability to reorganise ([[Neuroplasticity]]) and is a multidisciplinary approach, involving physiotherapists, occupational therapists and speech and language therapists.  
*It is a problem solving Neuro developmental approach for assessment and treatment of individuals with cerebral palsy and other allied neurological conditions
 
*It address the problem that occur as a result of impairment of the developing central nervous system that affect the individual's sensory -motor, &nbsp;cognitive , perceptual , social and emotional development
It was developed for the treatment of individuals with pathophysiology or injury of the central nervous system (CNS), primarily children with [[Cerebral Palsy]] (CP) and adults with cerebral vascular accidents ([[Stroke|CVA]] or [[Stroke|stroke]]).
