Intensive Therapy
Our patients have experienced tremendous progress with the Intensive Model of Therapy (IMOT). IMOT is most commonly referred to as “Intensive Therapy”. This approach consolidates and accelerates the child’s physical therapy plan of care. Kids in intensive therapy are scheduled for 2 hours a day, for 2 consecutive weeks. We encourage one or two goals to be focused on, while utilizing treatments that are most helpful in meeting those functional outcomes.
Our Current Intensive Program Details:
Scheduling Block is 9:00 to 11:00, 2 hours per day.
Scheduling will be Monday through Thursday, as we are closed on Fridays.
This block of time will be dedicated to IMOT services throughout the year.
Intensives can be booked for 1, 2 or 3 week durations.
We are actively scheduling at this time and would be available to start as soon as November, ‘25.
Reach out soon if you have an interest, as these fill up quickly!
Intensive therapy is helpful for those looking to speed up their progress in both developmental skills and functional independence. Improvements are seen in body awareness, coordination, motor control, balance, and activities of daily living. As with all therapies, the plan is individualized and the treatment choices are unique to those expectations. There are a variety of treatment options including DMI exercises, use of the Spider Cage/UEU, medical treadmill, taping and suit therapies, constraint induced movement therapy, and much more. Intensive therapy can be helpful for young toddlers, older children, and teens with neurodevelopmental conditions including cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, developmental delay, traumatic brain injuries, stroke, and others. Intensive therapy is also beneficial for children needing pre-op and post-op rehabilitation such as post-tendon releases, Botox, selective dorsal rhizotomy, and single event multi-level surgery (bony or soft tissue surgery).
Intensives are being scheduled now and can start as early as November 2025!
