Pediatric Occupational Therapy services in Alpharetta, GA

Occupational therapy is a healthcare profession focused on helping children gain independence in childhood occupations, such as play, activities of daily living, motor tasks, attention and focus, executive functioning tasks and more. 

DMI stands for Dynamic Movement Intervention. It is a treatment approach developed to treat children with motor delays. It uses elicits automatic postural responses and promotes progress towards developmental milestones. The goal of DMI is to provoke a specified active motor response from the child in response to defined dynamic exercises given by the therapist. This comprehensive intervention incorporates current research on neurorehabilitation, technologies, and methodologies and stimulates neuroplasticity to facilitate new neuronal connections and development of motor milestones. It is highly effective for improving motor coordination, postural control, proximal stability and sensory processing. 

I have experience working with children from birth to adulthood. DMI specifically can be done at any age but is most effective when started early in life. However, changes in the brain can be made throughout the lifespan thanks to neuroplasticity. 

I am out of network for all insurance companies, but do accept Katie Beckett Medicaid.
