We are running Out Patient Therapy Department for Intellectually challenged and other kids. Movement and play experiences provide the foundation for the development of motor, sensory, perceptual, and cognitive, language and social skills for infant and young children. For the infant and young child with physical or other developmental delays, these experiences are compromised. This means that parents and professionals need to work together as a team to create opportunities for movement and learning. Improve cognitive, social, motor and speech activities.
Our ‘Outpatient Therapy’ identifies the disability and gives awareness about the disability and prevents the contractures at very early stages and also prepares pre-academic skills. The kids came from outside and take treatment from our professionals.
