Speech therapy helps with communication or feeding and swallowing challenges in children. Children may have difficulties with expressive language (how they speak) or receptive language (how they understand language). Speech therapy may also address difficulties with oral motor skills, articulation, auditory processing, social skills. Our speech therapist is also proficient with treating feeding and swallowing disorders.
Intensives are a three-week long program consisting of therapy 2 to 6 hours a day, five days a week. Following an intensive session, many children gain greater independence and new developmental skills. It is common for patients to see more progress in three weeks of intensive therapy than they do in 12 months of traditional therapy!
Dynamic movement intervention "DMI" is a therapeutic technique that provokes a specified active motor response from a defined dynamic exercise performed by a trained physical or occupational therapist, thus improving automatic, postural responses and promoting progress towards developmental milestones.
The Universal Exercise Unit, (UEU) “Spider Cage,” is an effective modality that incorporates a system of pulleys, weights and bungee cord attachments that allows therapists to isolate and target specific muscle groups and use low-grade resistance to improve muscle strength, coordination, balance and functional movement.
The Therasuit is a soft, dynamic proprioceptive orthotic that is used to treat patients with neurological disorders. The suit utilizes elastic rubber bungees to facilitate or inhibit muscle movement to bring the patient into proper posture and structural alignment so he/she can learn and produce quality movement patterns. It also aids in providing proprioceptive input to the body.
Feeding Therapy focuses on evaluating a child’s nutritional needs, the underlying musculoskeletal anatomy, physiology and motor skills that may be contributing to difficulties, pain and/or discomfort with eating, and sensory challenges that may make the experience of eating stressful and uncomfortable.
