Every parent of a child with cerebral palsy strives to do everything possible to improve his motor skills. Sieglinde Martin's book describes in detail how to improve gross motor skills in children with varying degrees of muscle and joint impairment. Readers will learn about the stages of motor development in children with cerebral palsy and how to progressively help children master increasingly complex skills such as sitting, crawling, getting on all fours, standing, and walking. The author offers exercises for stretching, strengthening muscles, mastering different body positions, which can be adapted to a specific child and bring benefit, pleasure and tangible results over time. At the end of the book there is information about medications and procedures that can be prescribed to a child with cerebral palsy to improve his condition. The publication is addressed to parents of children with cerebral palsy, physiotherapists and other specialists involved in helping children with cerebral palsy.
