Frequently Asked Question #4
October 26, 2007
My child (or I) have different abilities than the people I have seen using the suit. Will it still work?
At the core, the suit and this method of therapy is a tool. As a tool, I am constantly using it and adapting it for the individual needs of the client. Therefore, how I use it will be different for each person, although the overall framework is the same.
What is the same for people with neurological disabilities is that both they all have brains that are sending different messages to the muscles due to an injury of some kind.
The TheraSuit helps to counteract those messages by providing a different input to the body. This allows the body to experience what more normal movement feels like.
How that will help overall depends on your goals. This is an intense session, and the results are always better if we have one or two specific goals in mind.
So the question is, if you had more normal movement, what would you do with it? How would that change his life?
The answers to those questions gives us the focus and the motivation to use the TheraSuit method as a tool in the most productive way. If it the goals are worth the effort to you, then we are much more likely to be successful.
