Question
How is pediatric cerebral palsy treated?
Answer
The primary treatment involves a holistic approach of medication therapy, rehabilitation, and surgery. Physical therapy (PT) is one of the main treatment methods, primarily focusing on training large motor movements, especially the function of the lower limbs. Common methods include the Bobath technique, which aims to prevent abnormal posture reflex activities and promote the development of normal posture reflexes, enhancing normal motor skills and automatic response abilities.
