At Believe Pediatric Physical Therapy, we know that oftentimes all parents are told that their children. But we have seen many of these children do things they were never "supposed" to do, and we believe that every child deserves an opportunity to be challenged, to be supported, to be believed in. Not every child will walk, or sit independently, or even roll without assistance, but every child deserves the opportunity to achieve their potential.
And at Believe, we are committed to offering the tools to help them. At Believe Pediatric Physical Therapy, we utilize intensive Therasuit therapy because we know the incredible changes that can occur in three short weeks with this therapy. We utilize the Universal Exercise Unit (the cage) because it efficiently targets weak muscles and allows children to experience active weight-bearing in midline.

Intensive suit therapy provides the push a child needs to move to the next level in their development. Three weeks of intensive therapy can bring about progress in a child's motor skills that may normally take six to twelve months with traditional outpatient therapy.

Suit therapy developed from the original Penguin suit used in Russia's space program. The suit was designed to counteract the harmful effects of weightlessness on the body after returning from long periods in space. It has since been refined into a model that helps children with cerebral palsy and other neuromuscular disorders.
The universal exercise unit, or cage, is utilized in two main ways: the Monkey cage and the Spider cage. The monkey cage is used for isolating and strengthening specific muscles necessary to produce functional movement. It uses a system of pulleys and weights to target specific muscles. It allows the therapist to facilitate strengthening of weak muscles while preventing compensatory use of other muscles.
The price of a three-week session is $7,800. This includes 20 hours per week of direct physical therapy. Because we value giving each client our full attention, we accept a small number of patients per 3-week period. Patients who require a modified intensive session will be charged a pro-rated amount.

Our son Chance was born with spina bifida and has been in physical therapy since before he was a year old. We had heard such positive things about the therapists at Believe Therapy from other families. When he was 3 1/2 we decided to visit and let our son try out Believe therapy.

Before we began he couldn't take independent steps. After doing a full-time intensive PT session and a couple part-time sessions our son
