Cerebral palsy is an incurable disorder, so there is no way to completely treat it. But there are many cerebral palsy treatments that will help to reduce the effects of the disease. Each case is of course different and will require different types of treatment for their cerebral palsy type. Usually getting various types of cerebral palsy treatments will offer the best effects.

Lets take a look at some of the different types of cerebral palsy treatments that are available. Most of the cerebral palsy treatments are determined by a team of doctors that will evaluate the patient. This team of doctors will be orthopedist, psychologist, physical therapist, occupational therapist, speech-language therapist and a social worker. The course of treatment will be based on the personal needs of the cerebral palsy patient.

Drug therapy is administered by your doctor and this will use a combination of different medications that will be determined based on various test that the doctor performs. This type of cerebral palsy treatment is used to control seizures and may even stop them all together.

Another type of cerebral palsy treatment is behavioral therapy. This type of treatment will help to improve physical, mental and communicative skills, it will involve different types of activities that are determined based on the disability of the cerebral palsy patient.

Physical therapy is the most common form of treatment and it helps to prevent further deterioration of the muscle tissue. This type of deterioration occurs from not using your muscles often. Physical therapy will help to prevent the need of having surgery to correct the muscles.

One of the newest types of cerebral palsy treatment is botox injections. It actually helps to relieve symptoms of the disease because it will relax the muscles and prevent them from locking up, and will also relieve muscle spasms that many cerebral palsy patients deal with.

Its important that you select the correct cerebral palsy treatment for the type of cerebral palsy that you are suffering from. The internet can also help you find new types of treatments that other patients are currently receiving and you can then talk to your doctor about the treatment to see what he or she has to say about it. I dont suggest that you take any type of treatment without consulting your doctor first you can create more problems then its worth.
