Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral Palsy is a neurological disability that can be helped with Chronologically Controlled
Developmental Therapy.

Neurological development follows a precise and predictable sequence, especially in early prenatal life.  It provides a
necessary background for all future development and learning.  These are the factors which are lost or inhibited by
physical or chemical trauma to the central nervous system, most commonly by lack of oxygen during or near the time of
birth.

Inappropriate movements and postures are the result of interference with or loss of sensory ability or physical functions
which are normally developed during early prenatal life.

All "deformities" reflect neurological developmental imbalance, and therefore should be corrected by addressing neuro-
sensory factors.  Deformities become "orthopedic" through imbalance of neurological stimulus for extended periods of
time.

With CCDT most neurological failure and coordination problems can be improved. Most deformities can be prevented
when the deformities are still limited to the soft tissue.

Treatment Approach

CCDT works to first rebuild the earliest levels of function, especially those developed in the prenatal period, before
focusing on progressively higher levels of function.

Each modality is performed in a strictly controlled sequence. Our treatment is designed to help the central nervous
system to retrieve and rebuild lost sensory motor function, which is in our genetic code.  We design the is program based
on the developmental level of each client's individual function.

CCDT Treatment Methods

Open flotation tanks (with support)
prenatal and neonatal sensory stimulation massage
developmental passive/active gross motor exercises
All sensory and motor input is based on the chronological order of the developing nervous system

Treatment Responses

Modification of muscle tone
Decrease in spasticity
Improvement in hypotonia (toxicity and strength)
Increased range of motion without stretching, splinting, casting or bracing

My daughter had a form of Palsy, not
cerebral. She was not walking nor did
the doctors think she would ever walk,
and she was talking before walking.
she never crawled. Futures Unlimited
took us under their wing and now at 7
yrs. Old I would like everyone to know
that she has received the only A+ in
physical education... Read More  

Victoria - Cerebral palsy  

Victoria was 6½ when we went to
Mississippi for the first time. She  was
in kindergarten at the time. We had to
put her on Paxil after 10  weeks in
kindergarten for severe separation
anxiety. Victoria had about  10-12
words that she could say (not clearly).
She wouldn't or  couldn't attempt to
repeat words.  

During the first 12 day therapy session
we really didn't notice any changes,
with the exception of the one day when
she walked 25 steps.
But, it didn't happen again. We had
been told though, by several people,
that you usually notice more after you
get home.
Sure enough, we didn't even make it
home. Victoria was attempting to
repeat words on the way home. From
that point forward her speech has
been progressing. She went from one
word to two words to short phrases
and then to complete sentences. The
clarity is still not perfect, but it is still
improving. Although many areas were
starting to improve, the ability to speak
was the most significant.
