Cerebral Palsy Test

Cerebral Palsy (CP) Assessment at Life Care Counselling Centre focuses on identifying motor, developmental, and sensory challenges in children suspected of having Cerebral Palsy. CP is a group of neurological conditions that affect movement, muscle tone, posture, and coordination – often caused by early brain development or birth-related injury.
Early detection through professional assessment plays a vital role in improving quality of life through therapy and tailored intervention.

Our multidisciplinary team – including neuro developmental psychologists, neuro psychotherapists, speech therapists, occupational therapists, and developmental specialists – conducts comprehensive evaluations to assess physical, cognitive, and behavioural development. Each assessment is personalized to understand the child’s abilities and challenges, providing a roadmap for effective therapy and care.
