There are some limitations in the study. The assessor FU was not totally blind to the nature of the study and although blind to which group the babies were assigned to, carried out some assessments with the help of HK. Therefore total blindness was not achieved and elimination of bias was not absolute. Secondly, one of the evaluation criteria, namely muscle function scale was not appropriate to evaluate strength related to muscle function for babies who were younger than 2 months of age. The results are valid for mild and moderate degree CMT and should not be generalized a for severe cases where soft tissue mobilization could be more effective.
