Polio seems to be a muscle weakness of the legs, usually, born into it for children. This obviously means the muscles are merely non responsive and will remain - you do see the children with legs that they cannot use, not skin and bone, yes? From this age, there might be a problem with real neural functions, as, the nerves are not responding to the relay nerves from each other, as, it is a relay effect, there is no 'bus' in the body, it is not a chord that activates each nerve. The spinal chord is a nerve that is extremely sensitive and carries impulses from the brain at super speed through the protective bones to push outwards - the 'pulses' - into the rest of the body, from closeness to least closeness. If the body's limbs are weak, this is because the spinal chord is interfered with. This means the spinal chord needs some revving up, and, therefore, will best be tweaked by exercising the limbs and body, with rotating movements. This will relieve the stress on the gardening hose and then more water will come out, yes? Simple bicycle rotations will maybe help. Then, there could also be nerves helping the spinal chord 'register' with shock therapy, This therapy, as the nervous system is electrical, will send impulses from the outside of the body to the inside, maybe even shedding the problem of dampening the signal from each point to the next. Or, they could easily heat and cool the child. This would be like making the body sense one thing, then another, to stimulate the nerves from the outside in. This would see senses naturally stimulated into being super reactive then semi reactive, as the temperatures influence the body's nerves.
