Question

The child with cerebral palsy is currently experiencing stiffness in the body, with muscles that are too tight, often resulting in a twisted neck or a straight neck. How should this be handled?

Answer

For acupuncture treatment of pediatric cerebral palsy, it is recommended to seek treatment at a regular professional hospital as soon as possible. Stiff-type cerebral palsy is completely treatable, but it requires seizing the best treatment opportunity and choosing the appropriate method. Clinical findings show that cerebral palsy can lead to motor function impairments, postural disorders, intellectual disabilities, language impairments, and visual-auditory impairments. Early treatment can help alleviate the harm to the child’s physical and mental health caused by these symptoms.
