Can Cerebral Palsy Be Treated?

Question

Dear doctor, my son is only four years old and has unfortunately been diagnosed with cerebral palsy. So I’m really wondering, can children with cerebral palsy be treated? If so, what methods should be used for treatment? And how much does it cost approximately?

Answer

I’m glad to provide you with an answer: Based on your description, your child was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at the age of four. Typically, children of this age with cerebral palsy are not curable. However, through hyperbaric oxygen therapy and physical rehabilitation, the condition can be improved. This treatment may require a significant amount of money, approximately several hundred thousand dollars.
