Abstract	The phenomenon of relaxation and tension in motor rehabilitation is investigated. The study involved 59 preschool children with different movement disorders (including children cerebral palsy). It was analysed 18 publications on the issue. Found that both relaxation and tension can be methodically used to improve the efficiency of motor rehabilitation of children by means of physical education and physical therapy. In general methodological relaxation should always be preceded by tension, but depending on the predominant muscle tone (hypertension or hypotension) requires specific methodological transformation of this approach. In addition, not all of the known technology of the muscles can be successfully applied to work with children of preschool age with spastic forms of cerebral palsy.
