Talk Description
Movement Analysis and Educations Strategies (M.A.E.S Therapy) is a UK based international, specialised treatment approach and early intervention for babies, children and adults with neurodevelopmental conditions such as Cerebral Palsy (CP).
The M.A.E.S Approach holds the Brain at its core. Understanding that for babies and children with neurodevelopmental conditions, the observable symptoms are a result of changes to, or alternate functioning of the brain, and how the child has learnt to use their body taking these changes into account. The most important point to remember is that the child was born with a normal body and it’s about the child’s brain and the way the child’s brain (which has been affected by a lesion) learns to direct the body.
M.A.E.S. Therapy looks at what is influencing a child’s movements by understanding how each child has learnt to use their brain. This includes looking from the child’s perspective and how they’ve learnt to understand, experience and interact with the world around them. We analyse their movements and identify what may be influencing their development both now and in the future.
Therapy utilises specific, highly skilled handling to guide movement, cognition and play in order to take the child on a path of learning new skills and maximising their potential.
