Many people hear “therapies” and immediately think of negative circumstances. At Hogg Therapy, we hear “activities to help children of all needs and abilities thrive.” Children with Down Syndrome are better able to thrive when they participate in various therapies tailored to their individual needs and abilities. We all want only the best for our children, and that’s why the Hogg Therapy team receives continuing education to ensure our pediatric therapists for Down Syndrome are among the best available near Lexington, KY.
Whether you’re very well-versed in the details of Down Syndrome or are just learning, you can rest assured that we are here to educate and assist your entire family in navigating the world of pediatric therapies for Down Syndrome. Also known as Trisomy 21, this syndrome is caused by an extra chromosome and is one of the most common chromosomal conditions in the United States. We have more information than ever about this syndrome which makes us better equipped to help your child.
Down Syndrome looks different for everyone. While there are common characteristics amongst individuals in the community, such as decreased muscle tone and developmental delays, these are used to help identify the syndrome as quickly as possible following birth so that your child can begin receiving therapies as soon as they are necessary. However, just as some people are tall or short and have different hair and eye colors, these things are not how people are defined. They simply tell us more about a person. Statistics and research matter, but they are not the only factors we consider when creating a therapeutic plan for your child.
Research shows that receiving proper therapies during childhood significantly improves the long-term outcomes for children with Down Syndrome. We offer a comprehensive range of therapies for children, and we will evaluate your child’s needs regularly to ensure they continue receiving the appropriate services. Our pediatric therapy offerings include:
