CP (Cerebral Palsy)

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a group of neurological disorders that affect movement and coordination. It results from abnormal brain development or damage to the brain, often occurring before, during, or shortly after birth. Individuals with CP may have difficulty with muscle control, balance, and posture, impacting their ability to move freely. Symptoms can vary widely, from mild to severe, and may include spasticity, stiffness, or involuntary movements. While CP is lifelong, many people with the condition can lead fulfilling lives with appropriate therapies, support, and interventions to help manage their symptoms and enhance their quality of life.
