For some children, excess histamine can show up as:
• increased irritability or meltdowns
• sleep disruption
• sensory overload
• digestive discomfort
• attention and regulation challenges

Histamine isn’t just an immune issue.
It interacts with the nervous system, the brain, and inflammation pathways.

That’s why in our work, we don’t guess.

One component of our Neuroadaptive Therapy intensives—when clinically appropriate—is testing.
Testing helps us understand what’s driving the child’s system, not just manage behaviors on the surface.

Because when the brain and body are overloaded, regulation becomes harder—no matter how much therapy you do.

Every child is different.
Testing is never one-size-fits-all.
But when it’s needed, it gives us clarity and direction.

If you want to learn more about our intensives and whether this approach could be a fit for your child,
comment INTENSIVE or send us a DM.

When the nervous system is supported first, progress becomes possible.

Neuroadaptive Therapy™ focuses on regulation, integration, and brain-body connection—so learning and communication can actually stick.

Check out how well our little baby princess is doing on her hometensive low level laser therapy program!
She’s babbling more and showing clearer attempts to communicate. Her head control has improved so much that she’s now holding her head in midline with noticeably better stability. Her eye control is stronger, her visual attention is sharper, and she’s demonstrating focused eye fixation in ways she couldn’t sustain before.

And this week, she had a huge breakthrough: she sat independently for 1.5 minutes.
For her, that is a major step in postural strength, endurance, and overall brain-body integration.

These gains don’t happen by accident. They happen because her nervous system is getting the right inputs, in the right order, consistently — and her family is following the plan with incredible dedication.

This is exactly what Hometensive™ is designed to do: bring intensive-level Neuroadaptive Therapy into the home, give families a customized roadmap, and create real neurological change without needing to travel.

If you want this level of support without getting on a plane, comment HOMETENSIVE or send us a DM to explore the program.

Laser therapy only works when the person holding it understands the brain it’s trying to change.

This is why low level laser therapy looks completely different in a clinic led by OTs and SLPs.

We’re trained in the exact systems laser influences—sensory processing, motor development, reflex integration, oral-motor skills, language pathways, and regulation. These aren’t areas technicians or other professions are taught to evaluate or treat.

When laser is paired with true clinical reasoning, individualized goals, and an understanding of your child’s nervous system, the results are deeper, faster, and far more meaningful.

If you’ve tried therapy before and felt like something was missing, this is the missing link.

Our Neuroadaptive Intensives integrate OT, speech, and low level laser therapy into a single, high-impact program designed to shift the brain—quickly and safely.

Small things strengthen your child’s neuroplasticity far more than most people realize.
It’s not always the big therapies, long sessions, or complicated programs.
It’s the tiny, repeated inputs that build stronger pathways day after day.

Here are a few examples we teach inside OTEIM:

• Movement that crosses midline
Even simple left–right movements strengthen communication between the hemispheres.

• Sensory-rich play
Proprioception, vestibular input, and tactile exploration all help regulate the nervous system and prepare the brain for learning.

• Visual-motor activities
Tracking, convergence, puzzles, drawing, and hand–eye coordination tasks support attention, reading, and motor planning.

• Language in motion
Pairing speech with movement lights up multiple brain regions at once—one of the fastest ways to support neuroplastic change.

• Consistency over intensity
Five minutes of the right input, done every day, will always outperform an hour done once a week.

Neuroplasticity isn’t magic.
It’s the brain responding to experience, repetition, and the kind of engagement that feels natural to kids.

When you understand how to strengthen the brain through small, meaningful actions, you change the trajectory of development—one connection at a time.

If you want more tools you can use at home, comment NEURO and I’ll send them your way.

Vibration in the mouth does so much more than “keep kids busy.”
It actually wakes up the entire oral-motor system — the lips, tongue, jaw, and all the tiny muscles that make speech possible.

For many of our kids, those muscles are under-active, under-aware, or stuck in old reflex patterns… so the brain goes searching for input that helps things turn on.
That’s why vibration can instantly:
• organize breath
• increase oral awareness
• improve grading of pressure
• support motor planning for sounds
• calm the nervous system enough to access language

When we use vibration intentionally, it becomes a powerful bridge between regulation → oral awareness → clearer, more purposeful speech.

Kids don’t seek vibration “just because.”
Their nervous system is speaking first — long before their words do.

And when we meet that need with the right tools and the right neuroadaptive approach?
Speech starts to come online in ways parents have been waiting for.
