CEREBRAL PALSY AND PHYSIOTHERAPY

Cerebral palsy is an umbrella term that describes impairment in movement as a result of damage to a young and developing brain. The damage maybe before birth or after birth due things such as illness, trauma and even some drugs. However, lack of enough oxygen in the babies blood at birth as a result of weak respiratory muscles seems to be the most common cause too.

Signs and symptoms are usually movement impairments such as the poor neck control, hand and leg weakness where the child fails to use the limbs effectively. This weakness results into things such as inability to sit, stand or even walk when expected, known as delayed milestones.
Since the brain is where the damage is, other signs and symptoms are behavioural (child may be uninterested in it's surrounding, highly irritable), language or speech issues and impairments in sight or hearing.

Physiotherapy helps to prevent, reduce or correct any physical deformities resulting from the weakness and disuse of the limbs. By use of exercises, a physiotherapist may also be able to teach the child movement such as crawling, standing and walking when the child presents with inability in such.
