He has been receiving individualized physical therapy sessions regularly at our centre. His journey during the current academic year highlights his determination and the profound impact of our comprehensive and individualized physical therapy program.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"en-AE\" style=\"font-family: 'Futura Std Medium',sans-serif;\">At the start of the year, he required minimal assistance to climb to a wheelchair from a mat, but now he can go on to a wheelchair independently himself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"en-AE\" style=\"font-family: 'Futura Std Medium',sans-serif;\">At the beginning of the year, he could not maintain standing without support and required minimal assistance to walk, but now his balance has improved, and he has recently started walking under supervision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"en-AE\" style=\"font-family: 'Futura Std Medium',sans-serif;\">His remarkable improvement is also due to the integration of physical activities in classroom settings and other routines. Routine-based practice, a technique widely used in our centre, has provided him with everyday opportunities to practice standing across different environments, which is essential for motor learning. He has practiced transitioning from a wheelchair to an adaptive chair, sitting to standing, balancing in a standing position, and walking during transitions between classes and sessions. This holistic approach, combined with the efforts of his therapists and educators, has significantly advanced his mobility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"en-AE\" style=\"font-family: 'Futura Std Medium',sans-serif;\">Haroon\u2019s journey is a testament to what can be achieved with dedication, skilled support, and a comprehensive therapy approach. His progress in postural control, standing, and walking inspires everyone around him, proving that with the right support and determination, incredible progress is possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-19147 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/accessabilitiesexpo.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Muthukumar.1-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/accessabilitiesexpo.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Muthukumar.1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/accessabilitiesexpo.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Muthukumar.1-140x140.jpg 140w, https:\/\/accessabilitiesexpo.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Muthukumar.1-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/accessabilitiesexpo.com\/new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Muthukumar.1.jpg 298w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Author: Muthukumar<\/p>\n<p>Senior Physio Therapist<\/p>\n<p>Al Noor Training Centre<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Visit:\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/accessabilitiesexpo.com\/new\/category-search\/al-noor-2\/\">Al Noor Rehabilitation &amp; Welfare Association for People of Determination<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<br \/>\nHaroon, a highly cooperative and dedicated 8-year-old boy with cerebral palsy, has made remarkable strides at the Al Noor Training Centre for Persons with Disabilities.
