Treatment of Cerebral Palsy in Children in Israel

The diagnosis of cerebral palsy sounds like a sentence for most parents — especially in countries where medicine is still limited to symptomatic care and offers nothing to significantly change the situation.
In Israel, everything is different. Here, cerebral palsy is treated actively and systematically: advanced rehabilitation protocols, high-tech physiotherapy, robotic complexes, and individual programs are applied, which show noticeable progress even in severe cases.
Israeli medicine leads in comprehensive rehabilitation for cerebral palsy, providing a significant breakthrough in the development of motor skills, speech, and independence even in complex cases. These are not promises, but statistics confirmed by thousands of patients and constant updates of equipment.
If you want your child to have a real chance to move better, speak clearer, and live more independently — Israel offers just that.

Top Ichilov: we give hope

What are the causes and mechanisms of cerebral palsy? Doctors around the world still cannot provide a definitive answer to this question. In cerebral palsy, certain areas of the brain are affected, primarily the white matter of the conduction pathways. As a result of this damage, the innervation of the motor and speech apparatus, as well as the functions of hearing and vision, are disrupted.

Unfortunately for the parents of children with cerebral palsy, a cure for this condition has not yet been discovered, but at Top Ichilov, specialists have learned to restore impaired body functions using progressive techniques, and in some cases, even achieve complete recovery.

  • Medication therapy. The medication treatment of cerebral palsy in Israel primarily aims to alleviate the child's condition. To control intense seizure syndrome, anticonvulsant medications are prescribed at Top Ichilov. Since brain damage may be associated with increased intracranial pressure, special medications are used to reduce it, normalizing the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid in cerebral tissues. Nootropics are also used — drugs that improve the nutrition of neurons, brain cells, and cerebral tissues by activating the production of the enzyme adenylate cyclase and increasing its content in neurons.
  • Electroreflexotherapy. This physiotherapeutic method is used to improve the functions of nerve endings in muscle fibers, enhance the muscle tissue's ability to contract, and restore coordination of movements.
  • Physiotherapy procedures – massage, manual therapy. Physiotherapy aims to improve the innervation and blood supply of the musculoskeletal system structures.
  • Rehabilitation. Rehabilitation activities include play therapy and occupational therapy, which help the child adapt to society and easily enter an active life.

Diagnosis at Top Ichilov – effective and without delays

Day one – consultation

The consultation with a neurologist includes a general examination, studying the medical history, history of intrauterine development, and the pregnancy and childbirth management card to establish the cause of cerebral palsy. The doctor refers the child for further examination.

Day two – examination

  • Assessment of motor reflexes – allows determining which part of the brain is affected.
  • High-resolution MRI – detection of the brain lesion with 100% accuracy.

Day three – commission conclusion

Gathering the results of all studies, the commission of specialists makes a decision on the treatment program in each individual case, depending on the severity of brain damage and the functional disorders it caused, as well as the child's overall physical and mental condition.

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
  • Diagnosis — PET CT
