hi

.

it is not a progressive disease

there is damage in brain and its manifestation may change as he develop but new damage will not occur

accupressure may be useful but to cure it ,is difficult.

u need multi disciplinary approach for it

physiotherapy is better option

u need to teach all the daily thing like toilet ,walk ,speak etc.
