About the Therapy

Dynamic Movement Intervention (DMI) is a cutting-edge paediatric therapy designed to accelerate the development of motor skills and postural control. Through intensive practice and specialized techniques, DMI therapy can achieve remarkable progress in a short amount of time compared to standard interventions. The selected child will receive therapy two hours per day, five days per week, for a two-week period. This concentrated approach is backed by research and has been proven to foster significant developmental strides.
