Oh my goodness. Are you in for a treat! Please meet my newest co-instructor, Alexis Sanderson. She is a Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) Level 3/4. She is 8 years old and terminally adorable. She can walk with trunk support well, pretty well with 2 hands held, and short distances with 1 handheld. She can walk in a walker with help to steer.

How long do you do a vibration treatment session?

[@pediatricPTexercises]

It depends on the child but the longest I do is 10 minutes
