Hello, my name is Eileen and I want to tell you why this clinic
and the special therapy program we have exists today.
I came upon Therasuit & intensive
pediatric therapy while researching cutting edge therapy for my
son, Lucas, who has cerebral palsy.
I enrolled Lucas in a 3 week (60 hour) program using the TheraSuittm
Method when he was 18 months and not yet able to crawl. Lucas was
barely able to combat crawl when he started this program. He was
extremely weak due to right side hemiparesis brought on by a grade
III & IV brain bleed and hydrocephalus caused by his premature
birth at 27 weeks. Lucas has also been diagnosed with PVL.
On day 4 of this intensive suit therapy Lucas was able to crawl
on his hands and knees and by the end of the 2nd week he was able
to walk unassisted to the count of 7 steps. When Lucas finished
the program it was clear that something joyful had happened. It
was also clear that I wanted him to have more, more and much more
of this Intensive Suit Therapy. When I made the call the following
week to explore this possibility the clinic I had sent him to had
closed its doors suddenly. It was at that instant I knew that I
had to bring Suit Therapy and Intensive Pediatric Therapy back to
South Florida so that not only Lucas but all children with neurological
damage could realize their rightful potential.
It was at this time I knew I had to open up a TheraSuit clinc, build
a world class team and "get the word out".
I recruited and hired qualified, experienced, licensed and gifted
therapists for this specialized and personalized therapy treatment.
I expanded the offerings to include Adults and reopened the facility
in February of 2004. The treatment is safe, without surgery or drugs,
utilizing natural movements, traditional physical and occupational
therapies combined with unique high tech equipment such as the TheraSuittm
the Spider Cage, and Universal Exercise Unit.
At the core, we are compressing 7-1/2
months of traditional therapy into 3 "intensive" weeks
while using some very special tools in very unique ways.
