Powerhouse Therapy CIMT

Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) is a scientifically supported method of rehabilitating children with limited use of one upper extremity due to numerous neuromotor impairments. These children often have decreased strength, coordination and range of motion in that one side which has a huge impact on their quality of life. This treatment model is based on overcoming learned non-use in the weaker arm and improving motor skills and coordination in the affected arm by constraining the non-affected upper extremity.
