Criteria for Inclusion:
Candidates for this program must be at least 4 years of age. The candidates must have a diagnosed cognitive/neuromuscular disorder or unresolved pain for longer than 3 months. The Clinical Director and Head of Psychological services will screen you to ascertain whether or not
you are an appropriate candidate for this program. Finally, our Nurse Case Manager oversees your treatment from admission to discharge. We typically use sensory motor function assessments to screen people for the ability to learn specific motor control exercises. Neuro-Psychological and Psycho-Educational assessments are available for specific cases.
Course of Treatment:
Treatment consists of a 3-day per week, 6-week program. Patients begin at a level consistent with their specific sensory motor deficits.
An additional 6 weeks is required under this program if you are recovering from a stroke or have a neuromuscular disorder.
