The results were processed using descriptive statistics followed by checking for the significance of the difference by using the Student's t-criterion for related samples.
Results. A comparison of the effectiveness of osteopathic and standard treatment of infants with a delay in psychomotor development by indicators of the functional status was carried out.

The outcomes of the treatments indicate for improving psychomotor development of the children in the main group, in the control group, such an increase was only 13.0% (p <0.001).
