Evaluations
Let’s get started! We start with a detailed and focused assessment. Evaluations include a detailed review of your needs and goals, medical history, and collecting data and measurements.
​
Evaluation may include specific measurements such as lower limb assessment, observed preferred movement patterns, spinal alignment, segmental control, or standardized tests.
​
When building a therapy, or wellness, program to target specific outcomes and goals, we lead with a strengths-based approach to identify your child’s powers and skills.
​
Initial evaluations vary from 50 – 120 minutes. You will receive a written review of the findings and recommended plan for treatment.
​
Evaluations may be included in Package Programs and Intensives; No need to schedule an additional session.

Non-Invasive Spinal Modulation
Non-invasive spinal modulation is a promising treatment approach for cerebral palsy and spinal cord injuries. More research is needed to understand effectiveness and safety fully. It is important to work with a healthcare provider who has experience with this technique and can provide guidance on whether it may be appropriate for treatment.
​
IN FOCUS specializes in non-invasive spinal neuromodulation to maximize the neuroplasticity of the spinal cord. It involves the use of electrical stimulation to alter nerve activity in the spinal cord. Most children describe it as an enjoyable sensation or state not feeling it at all.
​
Kristin Girshin acts as a strategic advisor to SpineX. She has provided treatment in a number of studies currently under review for publication and is currently supporting SpineX to gain FDA approval for their SCiP device to safely and effectively deliver non-invasive spinal stimulation to children with cerebral palsy.
