Evolving picture: A kid with a disorder of motion and posture related to events that occurred during pregnancy, labor, delivery or the first 3 yrs can be labeled CP at some point. Hyper or hypotonia are both features found in some.Early intervention programs that work on reducing primitive reflexes and enabling progress are the mainstay of therapy.Keep at it to reduce the kids limitations.
