What is Cerebral Palsy Physiotherapy?  

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a neurological condition caused by damage to the developing brain before, during, or shortly after birth. It primarily affects movement, muscle tone, posture, and coordination, although symptoms and severity vary from person to person. 

Neurological physiotherapy plays a vital role in helping individuals with Cerebral Palsy improve physical function, maintain mobility, reduce muscle stiffness, and maximise independence. Through targeted exercises and functional rehabilitation, physiotherapy supports long-term health, participation in everyday activities, and overall wellbeing. 

As Cerebral Palsy is a lifelong condition, physiotherapy is often an ongoing process that adapts to changing needs throughout childhood and adulthood. 

How We Treat Cerebral Palsy  

Our rehabilitation programmes focus on improving movement, independence, and quality of life. 

1. Comprehensive Neurological Assessment 
We assess mobility, muscle tone, strength, flexibility, balance, posture, coordination, and functional abilities to develop a personalised treatment plan. 
2. Individualised Rehabilitation Programme 
Using evidence-based neurological physiotherapy techniques, we create a programme designed to improve movement quality, physical function, and independence. 
3. Strength & Mobility Training 
Targeted exercises help improve muscle strength, joint mobility, flexibility, and endurance while encouraging more efficient movement patterns. 
4. Balance & Coordination Rehabilitation 
We use functional exercises to improve balance, stability, coordination, and confidence during everyday activities. 
5. Functional Skills Training 
Treatment focuses on improving daily activities such as walking, standing, transferring, climbing stairs, and participating in school, work, sport, or recreational activities. 
6. Education & Long-Term Support 
We work closely with individuals, parents, carers, and families to provide education, home exercise programmes, and ongoing support to encourage continued progress between appointments.
