Milestone Moment - Charlotte!

July 14, 2022

Success Story: Charlotte!

Charlotte was 2 months old when she started with PMC in April 2021. When she started, Charlotte was only looking to her left, had some trunk and neck tightness and GI distress. She was not a fan of being stretched and would cry frequently throughout her sessions. We began with stretching and positioning to help loosen up her muscles and strengthen her neck and trunk so that she could look to the right also. Next we progressed tummy time, prone propping and rolling. As soon as Charlotte was able to roll and move her neck symmetrically, she became a completely different kiddo. She was happy and smiling the whole time and did not mind being stretched anymore. Charlotte quickly began sitting on her own.
Now at 9 months old, Charlotte is crawling around and getting into everything at home! She is currently working on transitions from sitting to standing and cruising along the edge of furniture. Charlotte is progressing very well and will be walking before we know it!! -Hillary


Keep up the great work Charlotte!

We are so proud of you and are rooting you on!
