Cerebral Palsy Program in Kanata and Orleans

What is Cerebral Palsy?

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a neurological condition that affects muscle tone, coordination, and movement. It is often caused by brain injury or abnormal development before, during, or shortly after birth. At On The Ball Pediatrics, we provide specialized Cerebral Palsy physiotherapy in Kanata and Orleans to help children improve their mobility, independence, and overall quality of life.

If your child has been diagnosed with CP or a related genetic condition, our team is here to help—book an assessment today.

Our Systematic, Supportive Approach

Our Intensive Cerebral Palsy Programs follow a systematic and highly personalized treatment process. We focus on:

• Postural Alignment: We use custom support garments and positioning techniques to achieve proper anatomical alignment.
  
  
• Strength & Stability: Through targeted muscle strengthening, we enhance central stability and build functional independence.
  
  
• Biofeedback & Motor Learning: We integrate biofeedback tools and repetitive movement practice to reinforce long-term motor patterns and neural re-education.
  
  
• Confidence & Function: With each new skill gained, your child builds confidence and the ability to take on more complex tasks independently.
  
  

Why Our Cerebral Palsy Program Is Different

We combine manual therapy, neurodevelopmental techniques, and functional movement training to create a results-driven program for each child. Our environment is child-friendly, engaging, and full of encouragement—because we believe therapy should be just as empowering as it is effective.

Support for Genetic Conditions

In addition to CP, our team is experienced in supporting children with a wide range of genetic conditions, including:

• Hypotonia (low muscle tone)
  
  
• Joint hypermobility
  
  
• Developmental coordination disorders
  
  
• Chromosomal abnormalities affecting mobility
  
  

Whether your child is navigating the early milestones or working toward more advanced goals, we’re here to walk the journey with you.
