Very Happy & Relieved Parents

Before our son started school we had no major concerns about his development. His speech was slow and he had poor attention, we considered this to be 'normal for boys' and that it would develop naturally. We knew he was a bright child so we were not overtly concerned. It wasn't until our son started school that his issues really became apparent.

 

He struggled to learn to read and write and pay attention. He struggled to make friends and his speech remained slow to develop in line with his peers. My son did not meet the criteria for a psychological assessment and we were happy that it was not the appropriate course for us to take.

 

At the same time he was struggling and needed some intervention. We discovered neurodevelopmental therapy through word of mouth. Following the screening process he fit the criteria for assessment.

 

The assessment found our son to be Neuro Motor Immature. We commenced a programme over the course of 15 months. It really was remarkable to see our son develop quickly over the course of the programme. He quickly became more adept academically, completing his homework independently and he developed an appetite for reading, particularly Roald Dahl and David Williams. My sons speech improved and he developed a strong vocabulary way past his age appropriate expectation.

 

Most importantly my son has developed friendships and is now a very happy playing with 'all the boys'. He has improved in sport as his gross motor skills have  improved significantly also. Myself and my husband are so grateful that we discovered Neurodevelopmetal therapy. We are amazed by the outcome and again so grateful for the positive life changing effects that his has brought into my sons life. 

 

Very happy and relieved Parents.

Neurodevelopment therapy has had a huge impact on my nine year daughter, prior to starting neurodevelopment therapy she was struggling in school, reading, writing and remaining focused on the task at hand was proving difficult for her.

​

Also she as struggling socially, joining in with her class mates and developing relationships was a challenge for her and starting to affect her confidence.

​

Having successfully completed 12 months of therapy including music therapy her confidence has soared. Developing relationships with classmates, engaging effortlessly with peers and has joined the local soccer team. Learning has become much less challenging with all aspects of school work have improving.

​

It’s almost as if she was a caterpillar in a cocoon, unable to fully develop and having invested 12 months in to the neurodevelopmental therapy has emmerged in to a butterfly.
