What happens in a Cerebral Palsy physiotherapy assessment?

Kieran's leg and hip muscles are checked for flexibility, responsiveness and spasticity. The physiotherapist takes measures every year to see how the Cerebral Palsy affects his muscles. It can be helpful to watch this video with your child before their appointment, so they can see what is going to happen at their physiotherapy appointment and feel less anxious.

The What? Why? Children in Hospital charity makes videos about hospital tests and treatments to help parents and children prepare for hospital and show them what will happen.

The charity now has 61 videos about hospital on topics such as Ultrasound, X-ray, ECG, Echo, EEG, allergy test, breathing tests, general anaesthetics, nasogastric tube feeding, gastrostomy tube feeding, exercise tolerance test, hearing tests, getting a cannula and physiotherapy for children with Juvenile Arthritis and children with Cerebral Palsy.
