Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral Palsy and Physiotherapy

If you or a loved one is suffering from cerebral palsy, the expertise of our physiotherapists and occupational therapists can help to improve quality of life and can ease some of the burden of care. Your cerebral palsy may be relatively mild, or severe and include difficulties with communication and swallowing. Everyone is different and has different needs so your dedicated therapist will work with you to create a personalised treatment plan, tailored to meet your specific needs and goals. Whether it be in the comfort of your own home, in a care home or a day centre, we can come to you.
