Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy is caused by damage that occurs to the immature brain as it develops - most often prior to birth. It encompasses a group of disorders that affect movement and muscle tone or posture. Symptoms of cerebral palsy are often first presented during infancy or preschool years. It can produce movement complications associated with abnormal reflexes, floppiness, or rigidity of the limbs and trunk, atypical posture, involuntary movements, unsteady walking, or a mix of several symptoms. We provide cerebral palsy treatment that can help.
Other symptoms include:
Tremors, involuntary movements
Stiff muscles with normal reflexes
Difficulty with eating or sucking
Excessive drooling
Learning difficulties
Challenges with motor skills
Favoring use of one side of the body
Lack of balance and coordination
Variations in muscle tone - too stiff or too floppy

Testimonials & Success Stories
Sky was adopted by a beautiful family, but his medical conditions - cerebral palsy, global developmental delays, multiple surgeries and chronic conditions - were exhausting, and depleting the family's resources. Before Brain Harmony, he was doing feeding therapy, PT twice/week, speech & language pathology, clinic OT, and applied behavioral analysis 4x/week with minimal progress.
Once he started Brain Harmony, within just 3 short months, he received more neurological gains than all the years of previous therapy combined!
Quotes from Sky’s Mom:
“The biggest thing is he has had a lot of feeding issues; he is trying new foods like never before! And he is more willing to eat more, and is eating broccoli , salmon and rice! Before that he would only eat mac & cheese and chicken nuggets! It’s now amazing and fun to feed him.
There has [also] been a huge difference in his ability to WAIT longer. Before the FPEA conference, we took him to a homeschooled outdoor paint class. He was not able to sit through the story, constantly running away and we would have to chase him. We tried it 3 weeks ago and he sat through the entire story. He never left the table and did the majority of the project! That was a 2 hour class, he did great. Next visit, he did it again with 20 ppl and farm animals! That is huge!
And the sleep for Sky and for us as a family is life changing. He can now comfort himself and he self-soothes to go down most of the time. My husband is very happy! I will spread the word about Brain Harmony to the homeschoolers! All of a sudden, a switch went off and all of a sudden he is trying everything! This is so exciting!"
Jude’s Mom: “Brain Harmony has been instrumental in seeing our son with Cerebral Palsy continue to develop and gain and maintain function using cutting edge and front line therapeutic practices and devices in a supportive, encouraging, and healing environment. Carol and her staff go above and beyond to meet the needs of not only the patient but the entire family. I would highly recommend them to anyone for a wide variety of medical diagnosis and challenges both physical and emotional. They are not afraid to think outside of the box and work at every angle to see the whole child reach the maximum potential that they are able to achieve, firmly believing that there is a possibility for more! This is the environment that progress thrives in!”
