What Is The PediaSuit Protocol™ Therapy?
The PediaSuit Protocol™ Therapy combines the use of the PediaSuit with intensive physical therapy sessions.
These sessions will be tailored to suit your child’s needs, lasting up to four hours a day, occurring approximately five times a week over a period of three to four weeks.
Sessions involve the use of the universal exercise unit, gait training, and other therapy interventions as deemed appropriate for your child.
This intensive approach results in faster progress compared to traditional therapy sessions, which are typically held once to three times per week and last half an hour to an hour.
How Does it Work?
The PediaSuit aims to align the body as closely to normal as possible, crucially restoring correct postural alignment, muscle tone, and sensory function while wearing the suit.
This provides the appropriate feedback to the brain during the exercises, enabling the child to learn the correct alignments and movement patterns through the process of neuroplasticity.
Children use the Ability Exercise Unit to isolate movements and strengthen muscle groups, enhancing strength, function, and developmental progress.
This program focuses on improving range of motion, muscle flexibility, and functional skills.
A typical day in our intensive program includes various activities such as warm-up exercises, deep tissue massage, tone reduction techniques, sensory integration, muscle strengthening, balance training, and gait correction.
Dynamic Movement Intervention and Amenio Neuro Frequency Therapy are often combined to improve results.
