In this episode of "Little Brains Big Steps," host Megan Williams interviews Franchesca Cox, an expert in pediatric motor development, to explore various therapeutic approaches for children. Franchesca shares her journey into pediatric therapy, highlighting her passion for movement-based interventions that promote independence and mobility.

The discussion delves into several key therapies:

  • Dynamic Movement Intervention (DMI): An evolution of Cuevas Medek Exercises, DMI focuses on supporting and provoking motor responses in children to enhance their motor skills.
  • TheraSuit Program: Designed for children with neuromuscular conditions, the TheraSuit offers an intensive model to continue motor development.
