Here are some treatments for
cerebral palsy. Each type of cerebral palsy requires a
different kind of therapy. Each child who has cerebral
palsy needs individual care. Most types of cerebral palsy
are helped by physical therapy.
If possible the child may be able
to walk or move without any help. Walkers and braces on
the child's feet and legs may help some who cannot walk
on their own. While the child has braces on his feet or
legs he may have better support while walking.
The child may develop their own
self care such as dressing, feeding, and using the toilet
themselves. Some children may face problems like bad
hearing, sight, and speech problems. Speech classes,
special glasses, therapy, and hearing aids may fix some
of these problems.
The child may take medications to
control seizures. Therapy may help the child feel
confident and be better able to take responsibility for
himself.
