Long-term, supportive physiotherapy for children with cerebral palsy, focused on movement, posture and daily independence.
Cerebral palsy affects each child differently, and therapy works best when it is patient, consistent, and built around that specific child's abilities rather than a fixed programme. Our approach focuses on helping each child move, sit, stand or communicate as independently as possible, at a pace that respects their own development.
Cerebral palsy is caused by disruption to brain development, typically before or shortly after birth, affecting muscle control, coordination and posture. It is not progressive - it does not worsen over time - but without therapy, muscle tightness and movement patterns can make daily function more difficult as a child grows. Early and consistent physiotherapy helps children build strength and movement skills alongside their development.
Therapy is built around each child's specific movement pattern and goals, and typically includes:
Progress is reviewed regularly and the plan adjusted as the child grows and develops.
Earlier is generally better - many children begin therapy in infancy or early toddlerhood once cerebral palsy is diagnosed or suspected, as early intervention supports better long-term movement outcomes.
This depends on the severity and the child's individual progress. Many children continue therapy through childhood as their bodies grow and movement needs change, with sessions adjusted over time.
Yes, and it's an important part of progress - Dr. Vashisht provides guidance for parents on safe positioning and simple exercises to continue between clinic visits.
