I follow your videos regularly a long with my PT. I notice a huge improvmemt for her head contol and she now conrol it fully and it took 6 months approximately. she is 18m now sitts with assistance. thank you so much for your kidness💕
I just wanted to say how impressive your videos are! As a research librarian and a grandmother, I have turned to your videos a number of times. Thank you, for caring so much, and thank you for sharing your expertise in helping children who, may have had a rough start to life, and just need some extra support.
I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for these videos! My daughter was diagnosed with SCN8A genetic mutation which causes her to have epilepsy- numerous seizure types and now infantile spasms & very low tone. She is only 6 months old and because of COVID has not had therapy yet even though she should have been in in the last month. You are now our PT. I know these are older now but I hope you see this & continue sharing your knowledge and wisdom. I think my favorite was the ribs thing- I would have never known about that I don’t think. I work as an orthopedic RN on a surgical floor but I know nothing about babies. Lol. So just thank you! 💜
Hi, my baby is also 6 month with low muscle tone and has poor neck control… i am gonna start these exercises from today…hoping for positive result…ur videos are very inspiring and i wish i could connect with u in person but can’t. Love from India
dollified100 I can only say that I have done this with a child with cerebral palsy. I cannot make a recommendation about a particular child, especially one that I have not let myself personally evaluated.
I believe she is 6 months old in this video. For children who are premature, you do a full correction of their age for the first year. This means you would expect 3 month old skills for a4 month old child who was 1 month premature. From 1-2 years of age you do a 1/2 correction. After 2 years, you no longer correct their age
My 7 months old baby has a good head control but each time she is put to sit she gradually slides down and can’t pull herself up and each time she’s been held it’s as if she wants to slip off one’s hands please any exercise for her
I strongly recommend you find a local therapist who can assist you. In the meantime, here is my sitting balance playlist. Maybe something in these videos will be of assistance for you. Sitting balance ruclips.net/p/PLAkJbMrHyKjMV5czJ3ZRd6JWW8Joh3qgH
Karen Kuo Very interesting question. I don’t know how much sleep a baby with low tone needs relative to a typical child. I’m afraid you’ll have to ask that question to someone else. I usually recommend that parents do exercises with their child when their baby is awake and alert and in a good mood. If you have concerns about how much your baby is sleeping, I would recommend you speak to your doctor.
I wish I had a baby with spasticity that I could follow. This is the closest that I have. I will continue to try to find a baby in the future. Thank you for your encouragement.
Hiral Modi I have seen several clients with a genesis of the corpus callousness. They have all been so different that I can’t make a generic recommendation other than evaluate them and see what their strengths and weaknesses are and develop a plan
Basava Basavaraj I am so sorry. W just found your comment. Unfortunately it is considered unethical for me to provide treatment recommendations for a child that I have not personally evaluated. I have released 200 videos with suggestions. I hope you have found a playlist that is helpful
Mam my daughter is 6 months old with no response and head and trunk control. She tries to hold her neck and head up but she can't hold her trunk. Can you please assist me what to do..?
My strongest recommendation is for you to find a local therapist who can assist you customize a program for your child. In the meantime, here is my head control playlist. Head Control ruclips.net/p/PLAkJbMrHyKjNf7b1x0fPKdDimNNG2zfPj
I am unable to customize these exercises to your child. I don’t know your child. I have not evaluated your child. I recommend finding a local pediatric physical therapist who can assist you.Maybe this video will help you though. ruclips.net/video/9J-AXqmvuV4/видео.html
Unfortunately, it is considered Unethical for me to provide treatment recommendations for a child I have not personally evaluated. I would do this exercise with a child with hydrocephalus, but I can’t say specifically if it’s OK for your child.
Polneni Sowmya Hi, this is the 2nd request I have gotten to give treatment suggestions for a child with increased tone on his legs. It is very tricky in the United States. I am unable to video any of my personal clients or any client who goes to my clinic due to privacy concerns. This makes it very difficult for me to find children to videotape with special needs. I was very blessed when I found the Myla to videotape. I will keep my eyes and ears open for a child with increased tone to also videotape.
I am sorry. This is beyond the scope of my videos. Typically, bowlegged problems are caused orthopedically and cannot be easily remedied with exercising. However, I recommend you consult with a local pediatric physical therapist who might be able to help you.
fiza asma I am so sorry. I do not have access to a baby with that condition to be able to video tape. They require exquisitely specialized handling. That is probably outside the range of these generic suggestions. I wish you the most luck.
fiza asma it is unethical for me to provide treatment suggestions for a client that I have not personally evaluated. I could provide you with potentially helpful information but also possibly incredibly damaging recommendations. I'm very sorry but I am on able to assist you. I recommend finding a local physical therapist who can help you.besides, my experience with children with your child's condition is extremely limited.

Balwinder Bindu It is considered unethical for me to provide treatment recommendations for a child I have not personally evaluated. In general, I recommend my families perform the exercises that I have given them that week for at least 30 minutes a day for the best results.

There are several videos on this playlist that might help you. I suggest you go through them one at a time and find the ones that are most helpful for your child. A local Pediatric Physical Therapist would be the Best.

If children have very poor head control, they tend to hold their shoulders up very high to support their head and neck. So it is a good sign that she is not stacking her shoulders up high
A baby should have a good head control by seven months of age. I recommend you find a local pediatric physical therapist who can help you. In the meantime, maybe this playlist can help you ruclips.net/p/PLAkJbMrHyKjNf7b1x0fPKdDimNNG2zfPj

I would recommend finding a network of parents who can recommend a good pediatric physical therapist. I wish you the very best. I also thought I had responded to your message already. I’m sorry for the delayed response.
Rameshnaik Naik I am afraid I have no idea why your sons neck is high. I have not evaluated your son to know the answer. Often children hold their shoulders up high to be able to support a weaker neck. I wish you good luck in the future.

I love my therapyst, we parent don’t put a clean blanket because we want to make sure u don’t dirty your shoes , please take your shoes off before entering a house our kids depend on you to keep them healthy think of what’s you stepped on all day don’t wait for parents to ask u to take them off is supper annoying an disrespectful
Hi. I appreciate your effort, my baby is now of three months, but she still can't hold her neck. What is the minimum time for a baby to hold his neck.? Thanks again
A 3 months old can typically hold her head up about 45 degrees when propping on her stomach. A 4 month old can be held sitting and can hold her head up and turn her head to track a toy side to side. If you have concerns, I would recommend a local pediatric physical therapist.
I checked on my computer and the closed captions play. They just didn't play on my phone. I hope you can find a way to see them. I'm sorry. I don't know how to help you.
In the bottom right hand corner of the video click on the icon that says cc. That will turn on your close captions.
