Abstract:
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a developmental disorder caused by brain trauma in utero or within the first few days of life, although symptoms may not develop until early infancy.

Providers may be reluctant to treat these individuals due to uncontrolled body movements, primitive reflexes, varying mental capabilities, seizures, visual and hearing impairments, dysphagia, and dysarthria.
