Cerebral Palsy
Conditions
Brief summary
Children with cerebral palsy frequently experience balance issues and gait impairments; gait training is a crucial component of their rehabilitation because it greatly enhances the children's socialisation and quality of life.
Detailed description
Since there is no known cure for cerebral palsy, the focus of treatment is shifting to enhancing activities like walking and self-care. Enabling the child with cerebral palsy is the ultimate goal of therapy.
