Abstract

Objectives: A bibliographic review about the therapeutic approach of Vojta principle and the importance of the activation of innate patterns of movement for functional improvement of gait. Methods: Data are collected after a search in databases PUBMED, MEDLINE, other resources such as Google Scholar and the library of the European University of Madrid, following the criteria Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyzes (PRISMA) and checklist. Data are collected during the months of January and February of 2017.Results: After using the criteria of inclusion and exclusion were collected 3 thesis, 35 articles and 7 relevant books of different databases. During the reflex locomotion therapy (RLT), the central nervous system (CNS) seems to be activated probably due to the influence of the posture and stimulus points. All the afferent propioceptive information could cause an innate response in locomotion coordination complex which humans use during gait.Conclusions: Patients with neurological disorders could be improved by the of Vojta therapy in different gait parameters. Vojta therapy (VT) could obtain the activation of cortical and subcortical levels that intervenes during locomotion. More randomized clinical trial are necessary to increase the evidence about Vojta therapy in gait pattern of neurological diseases.
