Question
My colleague’s child is only a little over 1 year old and has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy. They are very upset and want to know if there are any treatment methods available.
Answer
The treatment of cerebral palsy should focus on increasing joint mobility, regulating muscle tone, improving motor control, coordination, strength, and endurance to enhance motor function and self-care abilities. Common techniques include: corrective therapy, soft tissue stretching, muscle tone regulation, functional active exercises, muscle strength and endurance training, balance and coordination control, physical factor therapy (physical therapy), etc.
