REHABILITATION METHODS FOR CHILDREN WITH CEREBRAL PALSY

Abstract

Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the most common neurological disorders affecting children worldwide and is characterized by permanent disturbances in movement, posture, and motor function caused by non-progressive damage to the developing brain. Children with cerebral palsy often experience associated impairments such as speech disorders, sensory deficits, cognitive difficulties, and musculoskeletal complications, which significantly influence their quality of life and social participation.
