How To Hack A Sidekick 09 For

64. MY EXPERIENCE IN THE THERAPY OF RHYTHMIC MOVEMENT


My experience of Rhythmical Movement Therapy

live in Mexico and I have a 6 year old boy with a diagnosis of attention deficit disorder and hyperactivity. We had many problems in school (kindergarten sentences), no answer when you talk, do not listen.

When I was very small like a bullet would not stop jumping and running. Is very sensitive to every touch, do not consent to the comb, body cream, I dislike labels of the clothes and the clothing itself.

generally negative was a kid, did not follow instructions and did not obey. Everything was difficult dressing, bathing, going to the supermarket, visits, etc. He resented the noise and music. I had problems with other children, becomes aggressive in certain circumstances, is very impulsive (that to me is the hardest, as biting, hitting and can not measure the strength of their hands.) Not sleeping well, moved all night, sat, stood, wake up and gnashed his teeth. Very messy and careless their persons and things, every day lost his lunch at school. Not finish their tasks, all half, then changed activity.

started 5 months ago by rhythmic movement therapy. We started seeing small changes, but to me are significant, at first it was difficult to accept the exercises, it was not wanted and as directed, they made them.

began to pick up their toys and hear their
things. Slowly he followed instructions and accept the exercises, now when therapy starts to night, fast asleep and sleeps peacefully, has greatly improved the gnashing of teeth.

Now is interested in illuminating his books, alone, without my request, it does well, no longer off limits and most importantly, finish each drawing begins.

I take a short course summer school that will attend this year, I told them the problem to see if they could accept, he was treated and told me that looks like a normal child behaving well, followed instructions, obeyed not hurt anyone, work well.

was just a week may be that the days will notice symptoms, but no doubt you could tell everyone something, at first contact.

With what I have read and learned, I realized that my brothers, now adults, had symptoms of sensory problems and also started therapy and are better, but still a long way.

I think some people think, that the therapy is described as Magic and easy, but it is not, is MUCH WORK, AND MORE. It is the result of perseverance and patience. It is not giving up even if the child does not cooperate, little by little you will like. We exercise three times a day, at night I take 45 minutes. To get to the query traveled more than 6 hours, but worth it. I go to the city of Aguascalientes there is the doctor who gives the therapy. This is just the beginning of the results be long before you are discharged, I hope this story will encourage more mothers that as I was, with despair, sadness and frustration at the situation facing their child.

I hope to write again and tell them that and got through everything, this story continues ....
