March is Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month.

Cerebral palsy is an umbrella term describing a condition affecting the brain that impacts movement, muscle control and coordination.

An estimated 160,000 people in the UK live with cerebral palsy including 130,000 adults and 30,000 children. The level of disability can range from mild to significant.

In this blog, Paediatric Occupational Therapist Louise Sharp explores the impact cerebral palsy can have on bathing, and highlights the physical and therapeutic benefits that bathing can provide for children with the condition:

An oversized, height-adjustable bath, the Aries 2000 has transformed bath time for Ava, who lives with cerebral palsy - giving her the freedom to bathe, play and enjoy special moments with her twin sister.

Before, using a standard bath meant mum Sam had to manually lift Ava, which had become unsafe for them both.

Now, with a supportive bath chair and ceiling track hoist, bath time is safe, comfortable - and something the whole family can enjoy again.

From a clinical perspective, the Aries 2000’s AirSpa system and chromotherapy lighting help Ava relax. Her spasms are less pronounced, and settling to sleep is much easier.

Sam shares:
"Ava can have a therapeutic experience without having to go somewhere, which means she can avoid the stress of being out. Home is her haven and having an accessible Abacus bath has reassured Ava even more.”

If you’d like to learn more about our specialist bathroom solutions or book a demonstration, contact our Product Assessment Managers on 📞 01527 400 024.

The Libra bath is designed for more ambulant bathers who need extra support getting in and out of the bath, helping them bathe safely with dignity.

The powered seat with new leg lift means someone with reduced strength can complete the transfer into the bath independently, without the need for assistance from a carer.

This Abacus bath is available as a fixed-height solution, or as a variable-height bath for situations where additional carer assistance may be required.

Abacus is your single source for complete accessible bathroom and wet room solutions.
