Virtual Therapy Program (free--anywhere)

Neuroplasticity, or the ability of the brain to rewire itself, is at its highest in the first few years of life. That is why early intervention therapy is so important for babies at risk of cerebral palsy. Sedona Butterfly Effect is currently offering two programs for cutting edge early-intervention physical and occupational therapy for babies who have poor neck/trunk control and are not yet rolling or sitting.

Virtual Therapy Program (anywhere): Families will have access to a 3-month program with weekly video trainings on dynamic movement intervention (DMI) therapy exercises to improve neck/trunk control and meet developmental milestones. This program is free. In exchange for access to the program, we ask for a commitment to try the program for at least 3 months and weekly feedback on the videos, so that we can continue to modify and improve the program for future families. If you are interested in this program, please apply to the Google Form below. 

In-Person Grant Program (Los Angeles only): This program involves in-person visits to a therapy clinic in Los Angeles to participate in the cutting edge therapies that helped our child develop miraculous motor progress despite her right sided head bleed and subsequent cerebral palsy diagnosis. Therapies may include dynamic movement intervention (DMI) and electrical stimulation (E-STIM), as appropriate. Occupational therapy will be conducted by Dr. Marielly Mitchell of Theraplay LA (theraplayla.com) and physical therapy will be conducted by Jennifer Swan (jennyswanpt.com), both of whom are former therapists from NAPA Center LA.

The program family will receive a partial scholarship for subsidized physical and/or occupational therapy in exchange for the ability of our team to film/video the therapy sessions for other families to follow-along virtually. The family should be located in/near Los Angeles, have reliable transportation to participate in this program, and commit to practicing therapy exercises at home. To apply for this program, please fill out this Google Form.

Program Specific Questions
Early intervention therapy is very important for babies at risk of cerebral palsy, but the therapy does not stop at the door of the therapy clinic (or when the therapy video ends). We expect parents and caregivers to practice therapy exercises at home on a daily basis for optimal improvement. 

Are you willing to practice therapy exercises with your baby at home on a daily basis?
