Abstract

In the article the authors consider such methods of the alternative/complementary treatment of the cerebral palsy (CP), presented in the modern domestic and foreign literature, as metabolic (amino acid composites), metamer (I.A. Skvortsov), intravenous administration of baclofen, antiepileptic (vagal stimulation, levetiracetam), acupuncture, transcranial cerebral micropolarization, epidural stimulation, modified motion-induced restriction therapy (MMIRT), stem cell therapy, as well as some other complementary/palliative approaches to the correction of clinical manifestations of various forms of CP. The final part of the article presents the attitude of modern evidence-based medicine to the main methods of the alternative/complementary treatment of cerebral palsy. These data are based almost exclusively on international systematic reviews and relevant meta-analyses.
