brainwave july 2012




























these are the pictures of travis at brainwave intense physiotherapy centre.
brainwave is a charity that helps children with various brain injuries.
we will be going back again in february.
they showed us how to do various stretches and exercies with travis to help with relaxing his muscles,we did a 2 day intense course and will be returning every 6 months to follow up appointments.
it costs quite a bit but i think it is worth it just for the knowledge of how to do different things to try and help travis.
they send you home with all the equipment they used with him on the course and a dvd of them doing the exercises with travis so you can watch it back to make sure you are doing it right.
i can see an improvement in the last 2 months in traviss head control .
