Miami, Florida - An exciting form of Rehabilitation for children with neuro-muscular disabilities such as: Cerebral Palsy is now available in Miami, Florida.

A non profit organization which before could only help children in need of intensive therapies if they were from the USA now can help Spanish children due to the hard work of Leo de Oliveira. A co-founder of Therapies 4 kids, a clinic helping kids with Cerebral palsy, and who is also a father of a special child. "I looked around and realized that the Spanish children are contacting us a lot but not participating in such important intensive therapies to teach kids to sit, stand, walk, and much more. I knew then something needed to be done," said Leo de Oliveira who is originally from south America.

According to Candice Sotomayor, mother of Mateo Sotomayor a Nicaraguan child with physical, and mental delays. "While this isn't a magic pill, it is great Rehabilitation. The therapy is done by fantastic and caring professionals, all trained in Florida-USA. Professionals who are dedicated to seeing children maximize their potential. They bonded with Mateo and discovered his interests, then used this to inspire and motivate him to push himself to a new level.

Intensive Suit Rehabilitation is hard work, but with these Professionals it's more like child's play and is compressing around 7 months of regular therapy into 3 weeks. The doctors said my son would lay in a bed for the remainder of his life after being diagnosed with severe brain damage from the West Nile Virus at fifteen months. He can now sit up on his own and scoot (a type of crawling) all around the house. He is now in his fourth three week program and I am hoping that he starts standing. I believe in this therapy and believe that more children should get involved. My son learned how to go from "I Can't" to "NOW I CAN" with the help of Therapies 4 Kids."

The intensive therapy program involves four hours of Physical and Occupational Rehabilitation per day, five days per week, and for three weeks at the time. The customized Rehabilitation program includes use of the Suit therapy, a universal exercise unit. Neuro-Developmental Treatment, unweighted gait training and other effective treatments to maximally benefit each child.

Intensive Rehabilitation is beneficial for children with cerebral palsy, developmental delay, athetosis/ataxia, spina bifida, Down syndrome, post stroke, hypertonic, and hypotonic. The treatment is costly (average of $7500 USD per cycle) but with donations and help from Non profit organizations, this formidable form of therapy can be offered to under privileged children.

Let Bright Steps Forward a non profit organization help your child to become the most independent that he or she can become. Call today to find out how to take advantage of financial help being dedicated to children from Spain.
