Question
A neighbor’s child has cerebral palsy. I want to know how to conduct intellectual training?
Answer
Suggestions for intellectual training in children with cerebral palsy include the following:
- Gently support the child’s head to maintain a good posture.
- Have the child kneel on the bed to strengthen neck muscles.
- Place one hand on the shoulder and the other on the shin for a body drying exercise, twisting in opposite directions to continuously apply pressure.
- Then let the child experience the sensation of a lateral position, which is also a model for guiding the child to roll over, enhancing the child’s ability to roll over. These are suggestions for intellectual training in children with cerebral palsy. I hope they are helpful to you, and wish you health!
