Hey ,

When you get sleep right, everything becomes easier. No matter how many times I watch Sarah go through this with therapists and their families, it blows my mind. Simple stuff works 😉 but it needs nuance and wisdom and individual tweaks to make it really work - and that's what you'll get from this session.

Sarah and Rita problems solve night time positioning for Teresa, an almost 4-year-old with SMA type-1 whose in bed around 10 hours/day and developing a scoliosis.

Here's a few things you'll want to check out from this session:

• All about lateral supports - where to position them, sizing them, using them to address rotational deformities.
• How side lying impacts shoulder symmetry
• Reducing chest compression before addressing rotation issues

+ so much more

Things to Remember

• Focus on daytime positioning before addressing nighttime
• Aim for incremental changes, not immediate full-night positioning
• Ensure full body contact and support in supine position and adjust hip flexion to achieve proper lumbar contact

Sit down and be inspired!

Warm regards,

Mindy
