Teletherapy is the perfect environment for therapists and parents to practice skills using coaching techniques. When coaching, a therapist will actively teach caregivers techniques to improve their child’s function. Coaching incorporates interaction between parent and clinician with the goal of improving the parent’s ability to support their child’s participation in family and community activities. Use of this method can result in improved social, cognitive and motor outcomes in children while promoting confidence and treatment involvement in caregivers. Join a teletherapy session today and see how good you’ll feel about helping your child! #coaching #coachingtechnique #rolling #motorskills #shenandoahsoundstart #teletherapy #kidsPT #pediatricPT #balance #grossmotor #coordinationactivities #exerciseforkids #developmentalexercises #gettingkidsengaged #winchesterkidsPT #telehealthPT #learnthroughplay #playwithpurpose #motorplanning #winchester #pediatrictherapy #PT #shenandoahsoundstart #soundstart (at Shenandoah SOUNDstart, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFP6uJZhGtV/?igshid=178ej4uz6l197

Does your child have difficulty with utensil use during mealtimes? One stress-free way to work on utensil use is through play activities such as sensory bins and playdough! We also use cool dinosaur or construction sets to help move our food around our plates and onto our utensils! #shenandoahsoundstart #kidsOT #pediatricOT #finemotor #visualmotor #coordinationactivities #exerciseforkids #developmentalexercises #gettingkidsengaged #winchesterkidsOT #learnthroughplay #playwithpurpose #motorplanning #winchester #pediatrictherapy #OT #play #learnthroughplay #stressfreelearning #mealtime #utensiluse #eatingisfun #playdoughactivities #soundstart (at Shenandoah SOUNDstart, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEqAZeABeEB/?igshid=1a7r2yh9vex5f

Children learn best through play, so why not teach them that way?! Play is important for healthy brain development and an essential part of every session! With these large foam cubes, you can teach a child how to identify or match colors, count, follow multi-step directions, as well as develop language and communication skills, all while building strong muscles and core! Build the tower tall at the bottom of a slide and provide some proprioceptive input for additional improved attention and participation. #shenandoahsoundstart #kidsOT #pediatricOT #finemotor #coordinationactivities #exerciseforkids #developmentalexercises #gettingkidsengaged #winchesterkidsOT #learnthroughplay #playwithpurpose #motorplanning #winchester #VA #pediatrictherapy #OT #play #learnthroughplay #sensoryprocessing #autism #soundstart (at Shenandoah SOUNDstart, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEnfmvyhkfr/?igshid=2rdojtoe4wwj

We have many small muscles in our hands which help with a variety of fine motor skills, one of them being in-hand manipulation. This is divided into three main categories: translation, shift, and rotation. Translation allows you to move objects from the palm of the hand to the fingertips and vice versa using only one hand and requires the skill of stabilization which is the ability to hold objects with the ring and pinky fingers, while moving an object with the thumb, pointer, and middle finger. #shenandoahsoundstart #kidsOT #pediatricOT #finemotor #visualmotor #coordinationactivities #exerciseforkids #developmentalexercises #gettingkidsengaged #winchesterkidsOT #learnthroughplay #playwithpurpose #motorplanning #winchesterVA #pediatrictherapy #OT #play #learnthroughplay #soundstart (at Shenandoah SOUNDstart, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFArtGDh2qz/?igshid=1iq1jemcc23nf

Fun is built in to every session at ShenandoahSOUNDstart! We understand that if we want kids to practice the skills they are working on in therapy sessions, the skills must be relevant to the child’s life. #shenandoahsoundstart #teletherapy #kidsPT #pediatricPT #balance #grossmotor #coordinationactivities #exerciseforkids #developmentalexercises #gettingkidsengaged #winchesterkidsPT #telehealthPT #learnthroughplay #playwithpurpose #motorplanning #winchester #pediatrictherapy #PT #shenandoahsoundstart #soundstart (at Shenandoah SOUNDstart, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEr4PUwBYM4/?igshid=b5m35mqv0hkn

Peek-a-boo! A simple developmentally appropriate and fun game can provide so many benefits! The physical therapy goals for this game include improving sitting balance, grip strength, and shoulder range of motion. But there is social-emotional learning, language learning, visual development and sensory stimulation going on as well. Peek-a-boo helps foster the concept of object permanence, strengthen visual tracking, promote bonding, and teach early turn-taking. Best of all, babies love it! #shenandoahsoundstart #teletherapy #kidsPT #pediatricPT #balance #grossmotor #coordinationactivities #exerciseforkids #developmentalexercises #gettingkidsengaged #winchesterkidsPT #telehealthPT #learnthroughplay #playwithpurpose #motorplanning #winchester #pediatrictherapy #PT #soundstart #sensoryplay #bondingwithbaby #babyplay (at Shenandoah SOUNDstart, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEGDSiNBnZE/?igshid=1omwh7k926a1r
