Overcoming Communication Challenges with Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurological condition that impacts movement, muscle tone, and coordination, often affecting speech and communication.
Individuals with CP may experience:
- Motor Speech Difficulties: Dysarthria, reduced articulation, weak voice, limited breath support
- Nonverbal Communication Needs: Use of AAC (Alternative and Augmentative Communication) devices
- Swallowing Challenges: Dysphagia or difficulty with feeding and oral motor control
- Language & Cognitive Skills: Many individuals have intact language and cognitive abilities, which can be strengthened with therapy
Early and consistent speech therapy improves communication, enhances social interaction, and supports greater independence.
