Hip adductor spasticity leads to discomfort, stiffness, and difficulties in doing physical activities such as sitting, transfer, and walking. Management of hip adductor spasticity is still a challenge in the field of rehabilitation. Horse riding simulator (HRS) has been reported to have beneficial effects on spasticity, postural control, and motor function in children with spastic CP.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title><jats:p>The aim of the study was to determine the immediate effect of HRS on adductor spasticity in children with CP.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Twenty\u2010four children with CP were selected and were divided into two groups: experimental and control (12 children in each group). Experimental group was exposed to HRS and control group to the corner seat placement. Adductor tone and passive hip abduction range of motion were measured before and after the intervention.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Post intervention scores in the group of HRS show significant reduction in adductor spasticity and improvement in hip abduction range of motion, whereas no difference have been reported in the control group.
