ABR: CP Child Development Progress Overview - Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy Child GMFCS 5

Cerebral Palsy: REMARKABLE PROGRESS of HAND FUNCTION, CRAWLING & SITTING in 2 years of ABR in a spastic quadriplegic boy. Full video at http://vimeo.com/6671771 Advanced Biomechanical Rehabilitation @ http://www.blyum.com
This video is the overview of a progress of a spastic quadriplegic boy, who started ABR at the age of 3.5 years of age after 3 years of various treatments for cerebral palsy being completely rigid and incapacitated. This video goes briefly over the progress in sitting, hand function and crawling he achieved in 2 years of Advanced Biomechanical Rehabilitation -- a non-invasive program of home exercises designed to strengthen the deepest levels of musckuloskeltal system. This video is followed by series of in-depth videos reviewing sitting, crawling, hand function selectively and then zooming on elementary stages of progress in 6-12 months intervals. Examples: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFcRyjb3l2c or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulUK0Ar7b44. The videos are full of practical guidelines and hints for every parent of a child with cerebral palsy. They are designed to fill in a major educational void where the parents do not know how to collect due dilligence. We guarantee that you'll be able to make a much better informed decisions after this course.

I'm a father. The previous question is not due to the fact that I don't believe to you! I only would like to understand. So, excuse me

Exactly why I pointed out that this is a GMFCS Level 5 child. Clear idea of a GMFCS level of your cerebral palsy child is a must-have starting point in order to avoid confusion/ "fake" treatments. GMFCS Level 5 child is expected to be @ 90% of max motor development by the age of 2.5, only marginal potential for the next couple of years & deterioration after the age of 5-6. This child was 3yrs old at the start -- so for his GMFCS level there was nothing good to expect from natural development...

@robby7092 CP is the result of damage to the cerebellum, the motor contorl center of the brain. Damage to that part of the body does not repair overtime, as nerons do not regenerate. What poduces the imporvement, is that repeated use foces the brain to rewire itself over time to bypass the damageed area. I should know, I work with children having cp or other special needs for a living.

Why don't you make some videos about what your therapy consist of?

[robby7092]

Tell me why one must think that the improvements aren't due to the child's natural development and maturation

We are training our daughter with the training programs of the Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential and we are seeing beautiful progress. The training you are doing is very interesting. Thank you.
