What it is
A short, honest summary.
- —A group of permanent disorders of movement and posture, caused by non-progressive brain injury early in life.
- —Severity ranges widely. What does not vary: early, consistent, family-integrated work changes the trajectory.
- —Goals shift with age — from milestone-chasing in infancy to function and participation in adulthood.
What families notice
The signals worth taking seriously.
- 01Delayed motor milestones — sitting, crawling, walking
- 02Persistent tightness, especially in calves and hamstrings
- 03Asymmetry in movement or hand use
- 04Speech and feeding difficulties
- 05Fatigue with movement
My approach
How the work is structured.
- —Family-centred goal-setting — what does your child want to do?
- —Play-based therapy that integrates with daily routines.
- —Caregiver training so therapy continues between sessions.
- —Long-term partnership with paediatric neurologists and orthopaedic surgeons.
What recovery looks like
A plain-language picture.
“CP is lifelong, but function is not fixed. With early, consistent work, the gap between expectation and ability narrows year by year.”
FAQ
Common questions, answered briefly.
- When should CP therapy begin?
- As soon as there is any concern — even without a formal diagnosis. The brain's capacity for plasticity is highest in the first two years.
- Will my child walk?
- Many children with CP do walk. For those who don't, mobility takes other meaningful forms.
