Concurring to European information, the average recurrence of CP is 2.08 per 1000 live births. Study proposed to confirm low laser acupuncture impact with wavelength 632.8 nm. on immunity improvement in children with spastic CP. This study was conducted on 40 children with spastic CP both sexes from 1 to 3 years old. They were chosen from the outpatient clinic of pediatric in the National Institute of Laser Enhanced Sciences (NILES) and physical therapy outpatient clinic at Benha Teaching Hospital.
