He worked with an OT, April Christopherson, who lives in a different state and never physically saw him. John’s mother oversaw the treatment while April set up the training plans. They communicated with frequent emails and phone conversations to work out any questions or concerns.
Following the IM-Home training, John’s mother reports that he has improved in overall motor coordination, self regulation, focus, organization, and academic performance.
He is also demonstrating improved coordination and motor planning while playing soccer and participating in tae-kwon-do.
John has more confidence in himself and continues to show areas of improvement, after the training was complete.
