What is Cerebral Palsy?
Cerebral palsy is a neuromuscular disorder and it formed for 2 words “cerebral” and “ palsy”
Cerebral – related to brain and palsy- related to muscle control .
Cerebral is related to two hemispheres of the brain and Palsy is a problem which affects the muscle of the body movement . These problems arise due to faulty development of motor neurons in the brain and disrupts the ability to control the body posture and movement.
Treatment protocol of Cerebral Palsy in Arunalaya Healthcare
- Manual therapy – manual therapy is primarily involved in cerebral palsy to address muscle tightness , contractures and impaired movement patterns by manipulating soft tissues and joints ,aiming to enhance function and reduce pain.
- Joint mobilization – also includes gentle manipulation of joints to improve range of motion.
- MFR ( myofascial release)- targeting deep connective tissue to alleviate muscle tension.
- DN ( Dry needling )– muscle tightness and stiffness by inserting fine needles into specific trigger points, potentially improving ROM and overall functions in affected areas
DN Mechanism of action
When a dry needle is inserted into a tight muscle the needle can trigger a twitch response which may help to relax the muscle and reduce spasticity.
Benefits
- Improve Rom in affected limb
- Decrease muscle spasticity and stiffness.
- Enhanced functional mobility.
Rehabilitation
Rom exercise – it helps to maintain joint mobility and prevent contracture.
Stretchings – it helps improve range of motion.
Strengthening exercises – it helps in increasing muscle tone and muscle strength.
Gait training – it helps improve walking
Aquatic therapy – it can help improve mobility.
CIMT ( constraint induced movement therapy ) – an avoidance based intervention that can help improve outcomes.
