Cerebral Palsy Care Services
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of disorders that affect a person's ability to move and maintain balance and posture.
It is caused by a problem with the brain that happens before, during or soon after birth.
What is a Cerebral Palsy?
Cerebral palsy refers to a variety of coordination and movement problems which become apparent in early childhood. It is caused by brain injury, or abnormal development before birth, during birth, or very soon after.
