Services
IMOT Therapy
IMOT (Intensive Model of Therapy) delivers concentrated treatment through 4-hour daily sessions over 3 weeks. This approach leverages neuroplasticity to accelerate motor skill development in children with neurological challenges. Our therapists customize exercise regimens to target specific movement patterns and functional goals.
NDT Treatment
NDT (Neurodevelopmental Treatment) focuses on improving motor control and functional abilities through hands-on therapeutic techniques. Our specialists assess developmental patterns to create individualized plans addressing posture, coordination, and daily living skills for children with neurological conditions.
DMI Therapy
DMI (Dynamic Movement Intervention) uses guided movement patterns to enhance motor development in children with physical delays. Our therapists employ specialized equipment and resistance techniques to promote natural movement patterns and achieve developmental milestones.
NeuroSuit System
The NeuroSuit system provides controlled resistance and support during therapy sessions. This exoskeletal device helps improve muscle activation patterns and movement coordination through targeted therapeutic exercises. Our specialists integrate it with other treatments for optimal outcomes.
Universal Exercise Unit
Our Universal Exercise Unit (UEU) features a suspension system with bungee cords and pulleys to facilitate resistance training. This equipment enables gravity-reduced movement patterns to improve strength, balance, and mobility in a safe therapeutic environment.
