What shows you that we “get it”.
We look at more than what the body is showing us externally.
We know apraxia does not discriminate and it’s way more than “apraxia of speech”.
We approach our support from a connection standpoint - both relationally and connecting the mind to the muscles in an intentional way.
We take into account cognitive control (meaning we understand that it requires initiation, sustaining, and inhibition to produce movement within our bodies).
We coach the body and muscles, not the mind or brain. The mind knows and the brain is smart. IT’s the body that we support getting connected to that.
We get that your loved ones “gross motor” is great. They can likely run, jump, scale the fence in the backyard. But we also get that these same movements, when done in an intentional way, become challenging for them.
We understand that movements, sounds, and actions become “stuck” due to over myelinated neural pathways that have become automatic (aka not intentional).
We understand the nervous system and how it impacts the body whether it be through sensory processing, trauma, or neurological “noise”.
