Have your health benefits just replenished? If so, did you know that you could put to use yoru physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech language pathology, and massage benefits to use at SMILE?
Does your family have some extra time in your schedule to squeeze in some therapy appointments?
Does your child seem to be regressing and could use a bit of help with their skills?
For optimal results, have our expert therapists see your child weekly. This will give them an opportunity to push your child to his/her limits, and also continuously tweak the child's home program for optimal results.
Coming in for weekly visits can also often be funded through FSCD with a Behaviour Developmental Supports (BDS) or Specialized Services contract.
See us for a Therapy Intensive. It is often during Therapy Intensives that big breakthroughs happen and developmental momentum builds. This is done through a combination of functional activities, high repetition, high intensity, and variety. These breakthroughs can then be more deeply ingrained through the regular therapy that happens, in between intensives, at home and at the clinic. Intensives can run over a period of 1 to 4 weeks, depending on the child's endurance and the family's capacity.
