Cerebral palsy (CP) is a lifelong condition—but its symptoms don’t have to define your life. At Patients Medical in New York City, we offer a compassionate, integrative care model that blends traditional therapies with innovative treatments like Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT).
HBOT helps reduce brain inflammation, support neuroplasticity, and improve motor function—especially in children whose brains are still developing. Our goal is not just to manage symptoms, but to improve function, independence, and quality of life.
Cerebral palsy is a group of neurological disorders caused by brain injury or abnormal development during pregnancy, birth, or early childhood. It primarily affects movement, posture, and muscle tone, and is categorized as:
CP may also be accompanied by cognitive, visual, auditory, or speech impairments.
Symptoms vary widely, but commonly include:

Safe, physician-supervised supplementation may include:
GABA or L-theanine for calming overstimulation
We integrate conventional therapies with holistic tools:
Reflex integration and neurofeedback
