title: [Judo -- a contribution to rehabilitation (author's transl)].
abstract: A judo group was formed at the Wolfsburg sports club with twenty 9 to 15 years old children who received treatment at the centre for developmental diagnostics and pediatrics. The children suffered primarily from more or less pronounced cerebral motor disturbances. Other functional disturbances such as perceptual disorders, language and reactive behavioural disturbances completed the picture of minimal brain-damage. The training programme attributed more importance to functional judo exercises than to perfect judo techniques. Allowances were made for individual difficulties. After 15 months of training improvements were observed in the motor, psychological and perceptual fields. This is why the authors believe it is worthwile to consider judo also in connection with rehabilitation.
