Friends, let's share some news about our Ira - one of kids in our orphanage.
Now the girl is waiting for a surgery and, unfortunately, she is not feeling well. She has aggression towards herself again, she is often in a state of apathy. “However, it is very important to continue the sessions on the verticalizer, so our specialist tries to keep Ira busy and entertained: the specialist gives her toys, talks, tries to choose quieter and slower exercises.”
In order not to stop her development, Ira needs to stand for 40-50 minutes a day. Sometimes, after Ira has been on her feet for a long time, she also manages to do joint exercises. Exercise will help the girl master the walker, with which she will begin to move independently. To prepare Ira for this, the adaptive physical culture specialist walks a lot with the girl and motivates her to move: she plays with her hands, stimulates reflex points on her palms, earlobes, and head, turns on music, and provides her with her favorite toys.
Now our Ira really needs rehabilitation. Let's help her to go to it as soon as possible. Let her start walking!
