Key Takeaways:

We are currently working on the key takeaways for this article. They will be available soon.

If a child with Cerebral Palsy(CP) doesn’t have enough range of motion in the limbs (due to lack of excercise) it leads to tightening of the tendons. This causes the growing bones to bend. Hence, physical therapy is key to prevent bone-related deformations in children with CP.
