Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a complex syndrome that shows various clinical symptoms. Here we present al3 years old, female patient with PWS who has some deficiencies and discussed the efficacy of physiotherapy program. A special physiotherapy program is constituted for the patient and this program applied twice a week during 6 months. After the physiotherapy program posture, the flexibility of the muscles, balance, hand functions and gait pattern were improved. We believe that physiotherapy is necessary besides the drug therapy, diet, psychological therapy and special education for the patients with PWS. Copyright © 2012 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
