Causes Of Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy is caused by damage to the motor centers of the brain. This damage can happen in the womb, during delivery or in an accident as an infant or young child.
The most common causes of cerebral palsy before or during birth include:
- Infection
- Head injuries during labor
- Lack of blood or stroke
- Lack of oxygen

We also consult with medical professionals in order to understand the full impact and cost of your child’s care into the future.
