STRIDE Zero G

We provide individualised goal directed intensive therapy programs (in 3 week, 6 week blocks, along with a custom duration program option) for children and young adults with neurologically based conditions and injuries. This includes people with cerebral palsy, acquired brain injuries and spinal cord injuries. 

Increasingly, research supports the effectiveness of focused and specific activity based interventions. This is the basis of motor learning and neuroplasticity where it is understood that consolidated mass practice of specific tasks has the potential to change neurological pathways. Interventions based on this principle are known as Activity Based Rehabilitation. 

Embracing principles of neuroplasticity through Activity Based Rehabilitation approaches has the potential to improve each person's ability as well as to importantly,  increase participation in life situations whether that be at home, school or community.

All of our Activity Based Rehabilitation programs are delivered three times per week over the three to six week period. In some instances, more frequent sessions are warranted and in these cases, families do have this option if required. 

The frequency of intervention is based on current research, our years of clinical experience and our own research in Activity Based Rehabilitation. 

Engaging in short periods of focused programs also has the benefit of planning ahead so that therapy can fit around the person and family. Whilst intensive therapy is important for optimising skills and participation, it needs to be manageable so that families can balance work, school, family time and fun!

NB. The custom program option will provide a varied session frequency and can be discussed at the initial assessment.
