Promoting Bone Health in People with Cerebral Palsy

When we have a physical disability, our bones can get a bit weak or osteoporotic. Something that can be improved is promoting bone health for people with cerebral palsy.

When talking about keeping bones healthy, we are not referring to big, fancy drugs. Instead we mean common things that you can do that are important for general health, like good nutrition, taking vitamin D, bearing some weight through your legs by using a standing frame. These are all things that we can do to promote bone health for people with cerebral palsy.
