The purpose of this paper is to review the reactive postural control in spastic children with CP.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Methods:</strong> Researches on development of reactive postural control in typically developing (TD) children and children with Cerebral Palsy (CP) were analyzed.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Results:</strong> The results of this review revealed at least three main systems of reactive postural control, including: sensory, motor, and cognitive systems. These systems develop in a nonlinear mode. Maturation of postural control depends on the reach of each system to an adequate threshold of development and organization.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Discussion:</strong> limited data indicated the development of reactive postural control in children with CP occur similar to TD children but with limitation in motor function and sensory organization.</p> Reactive postural control, Balance, Adjustment postural control, Child, Cerebral palsy 66 74 http://irj.uswr.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-115-2&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Nazila Akbar Fahimi No epartment of Occupational Therapy, University of Social Welfare and Rehabilitation Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
