A. Jean Ayers, PhD, OTR, FAOTA, describes "Sensory Integration" as the organization of sensation for use.
Our senses give us information about the physical conditions of our body and the environment around us.
Sensations flow into the brain like a stream flowing into a lake.
Countless bits of sensory information enter our brain at every moment, not only from our eyes and ears, but also from every place in our bodies.
We have a special sense that detects the pull of gravity and the movements of our body in relation to the earth.

Hippotherapy is a treatment that uses the multidimensional movement of the horse; from the Greek word "hippos" which means horse.
Specially trained physical, occupational and speech therapists use this medical treatment for clients who have movement dysfunction.
Historically, the therapeutic benefits of the horse were recognized as early as 460 BC.
The use of the horse as therapy evolved throughout Europe, the United States and Canada.
Hippotherapy uses activities on the horse that are meaningful to the client.

Here at Leaps & Bounds Physical Therapy, we offer Integrated Manual Therapy (IMT) services for adults.
It is a great way for any adult to find rejuvination and healing from recent medical issues, or even past medical concerns.
IMT is gentle and provides for than just the hands-on therapy it encompasses.
There are also supplements that can lead towards better health and overall well-being.
Our services here are limited for adults, as it is a first-come, first-serve service we offer due to our primary focus being on pediatric patients.

A Reflex is a rapid, automatic and predictable response to sensory stimuli.
When the human body experiences certain pressure, touch, sound, visual input or body positions it then responds with a predictable muscle response.
We have certain reflex responses in the womb, early in life and later in life.
Reflexes are meant to provide stimulation to strengthen muscles for more skilled movement when we are young and provide protection through all ages.
The Primitive Reflexes appear in the womb and early infancy and are integrated into voluntary movement patterns, or mature reflex patterns as the infant develops primarily during the first 6-12 months of life.
