What is Cerebral Palsy (CP) Disorder?

Cerebral palsy is a Neurodevelopmental Disorder which is a medical condition that affects the way people move, their muscle tone, posture. This happens due to damage to the developing brain often before or during birth and on some occasions after. Different parts of the brain may be affected by this destruction leading to different types of cerebral palsy which also varies depending on an individual’s set challenges. People with cerebral palsy have issues with muscle control and coordination which make simple activities such as walking, talking or even eating more difficult. 

 

Cerebral Palsy (CP) Symptoms and Signs:

Here are the early Signs & Symptoms of Cerebral Palsy (CP):

• Muscle Stiffness/Weakness: In cerebral palsy, especially in children, the muscles are tight and restrict movement.
• Abnormal Movements: Coordination deficit may lead to problems during activities such as walking and reaching.
• Poor Postures: Abnormal postures can be caused by exaggerated or diminished reflexes resulting from irregular involuntary movements.
• Delayed Milestones: These children often attain motor developmental stages like sitting up or walking later than their peers do.
• Spastic Cerebral Palsy: The muscles become stiff and rigid in this kind thus impeding normal locomotion.
• Ataxic Cerebral Palsy: This group of individuals exhibit difficulties with balance and coordination.
• Speech Problems: The most common sign of cerebral palsy is difficulty speaking.

 

Common Fears & Concerns related to Cerebral Palsy (CP) Disorder :

Living with Cerebral Palsy (CP) can push up a host of fears and concerns that are deeply rooted in human emotions. These include:

 

• Fear of exclusion and isolation:
  Individuals living with cerebral palsy may be scared of being left out or alienated by society because of their physical restrictions or differences. The desire to be accepted, loved or included is basic to the human psyche, while fearing rejection is heart rending.
• Worries about independence:
  Many people living with cerebral palsy often have worries about whether they will be able to live on their own and do simple day-to-day tasks without needing help from someone else. Instances whereby these individuals fear being reliant on others may cause them to feel helpless as well as unworthy, both themes that interfere with an individual’s self-determination.
• Anxiety about future health complications:
  Cerebral palsy is unpredictable due to its secondary health conditions such as muscle contractures or joint deformities which make people highly anxious about it. People with cerebral palsy and their families are heavily burdened when they worry about their deteriorating health condition or increased pain and discomfort levels.
• Worries about social stigma and discrimination:
  Disabilities in general tend to come with a lot of shame thus leading to fear of stigmatization, prejudice or even mockery. Fears relating to other people judging them or not understanding them adequately could deprive a person off his/her self-esteem 

 

Best Treatment on Cerebral Palsy (CP) Disorder in India at StemRx:

 

At StemRx hospital, we use a multidisciplinary treatment approach for patients with Cerebral Palsy, a Neurodevelopmental Disorder, knowing that toxic levels of heavy metals and infections in the intestine can elevate oxidative stress in the brain and disrupt the Gut-Brain axis - a communication pathway essential for management of neurological symptoms associated with this condition.

Our method is based on a detoxification process to get rid of heavy metal and resuscitate normal functioning of the Gut-Brain axis. We also utilize Intestinal Microbiota Transfer (IMT) to improve gut health and remove harmful toxins. Cellular therapy is key for improving brain functions and motor controls. This also includes use of quantum energy medicine, neuropeptides as well as growth factors which are aimed at supporting general recovery as well as neurological conditions  improvement.
