Is your child struggling to pay attention in class?

Kids who have been labeled as "trouble students" may simply have trouble with vision, and we're not talking about 20/20.

Functional vision demands more out of their little eye muscles, and is the root of "school problems" in 1 of 4 kids.

If any of these sound familiar, reach out today to get them assessed!
💥 headaches
💥 refusing to read
💥 doesn't like school
💥 fidgety in their seat
💥 has trouble paying attention
💥 trouble with hand writing
💥 poor reading comprehension

💤💤💤 Sensory tip! 💤💤💤

Weighted blankets provide deep pressure that calms the nervous system.
It is easier for kids with sensory processing difficulties to relax and fall asleep when their nervous system isn't on high alert.

When kids don’t get enough quality sleep, it shows up as irritability, poor focus, and lots of meltdowns during the day. A simple tool like this can support better sleep—and better days overall.

Weight does matter, and not just any old blanket off Amazon will do.
Call today! We'll help!

This week we were thrilled to present on behalf of Therapy Monkey and HorsePlay Therapy at the Medical Sciences OT department in honor of Women's History Month.

We went over the course of professional development from OT student to workplace, business owner to non-profit start ups...sprinkling tidbits of advice along the way for our future OTs!

We LOVE sharing about what we do and what sets us apart, and also meeting some wonderful people. Thank you for having us!

Check out these lights!

Our glow room helps kids focus, brings calm, and makes regulation a bit easier. Definitely a crowd favorite!

Core strength is the foundation for so many everyday skills!

A strong core helps kids sit upright at school, maintain balance during play, and use their hands more effectively for writing and fine motor tasks.

Building core strength supports better posture, coordination, and confidence in both learning and play. Shout out to all the amazing PTs building that core so kids can live their best lives!

OT thought:
Did you know HOW we swing kids matters?

LINEAR swinging (forward/backward or side to side) helps
💥kids organize
💥calm
💥 great for overwhelmed, overstimulated, or worked up kids

ROTARY swinging (spinning, pendulum, wrecking ball type 🤣)
💥creates more energy
💥jump starts alertness
💥great for kids who need a little more pep and energy boost
💥not-so-ideal for kids already full of energy

Overall, swinging provides intense vestibular and proprioceptive input to help calm, stimulate, regulate, and improve body awareness...we see the best results when we intentionally swing before table top or focus-heavy activities!

When kids lead in floor play, the mind and body are engaged and empowerment takes therapy effectiveness to the next level...plus what could be better than therap-izing with your friends?

If you believe kids learn best through play, we're the clinic for YOU!
