Description
The brain controls all that we do. Different parts of
the brain control the movement of every muscle of the
body. In cerebral palsy, there is damage to, or lack of
development in, one of these areas of the brain.
'Cerebral' – refers to the brain. 'Palsy' – can mean weakness or paralysis or lack of muscle control. Therefore cerebral palsy is a disorder of muscle control which results from some damage to part of the brain. The term cerebral palsy is used when the problem has occurred early in life, to the developing brain.
