Dynamic Movement Intervention
Dynamic Movement Intervention (DMI) is a therapeutic technique used by therapists to treat children with motor delay by improving automatic postural responses and promoting progress toward developmental milestones.
(DMI)
Iron City OT is the sole clinic in Alabama that offers DMI intensives.
We offer weekly and intensive DMI sessions.
DMI can benefit children with any type of motor delay including:
Down syndrome
Cerebral Palsy
Global developmental delay
Hypotonia
Chromosomal abnormalities/genetic disorders
Spinal cord lesions
Acquired brain injury
DMI empowers children through movement by stimulating strong neuroplastic changes within the developing brain.
“It’s so amazing seeing the difference in DMI therapy vs regular Physical or Occupational Therapy. Cas has been in therapy since he was 7 months old and we haven’t seen any progress with him like we have in this one week of DMI.”
“DMI Therapy with Iron City OT has been life-changing for him and us! We are beyond grateful to have found them and can’t wait to continue seeing all of his gains!”
