motor relearning program is a good technique; however it is no the one, I would expand and found other modalities, so far i use a combination MRP and bobath. funtional activites is the key; however the part practice is very important as well, good luck

I agree,look at the website as suggested by another respondent. In the acute setting, Bobath is better and carr and Shepherd are more geared to the chronic setting.A mix of both, as is done in all schools outside Sydney, seems to work best.
