The Bobath Concept/NDT: Clarifications and Context

Wow, The Bobath concept  is an individualised response-based treatment approach.

What a crock, if you can't create a RCT then you have no basis in even using it for therapy. Apologists in force in this posting. I guess it is unprofessional to criticize Bobath, well shit, I'm not a medical professional so if you can't prove your stuff works then you can shove it.
