Neuromuscular disorders
Children with neuromuscular and movement disorders are carefully evaluated and treated at PNI. We evaluate children with muscle stiffness or spasticity in a comprehensive approach that includes pediatrics, pediatric neurology, pediatric neurosurgery, nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. Our goals are to maximize each child's potential and to help that child function within their environment.
Procedures which are offered include:
- Physical, occupational and/or speech therapy
- BOTOX® injections
- Orthotic (brace) design and maintenance
- Dorsal rhizotomy
- Intrathecal Baclofen Therapy (ITB)
- Deep brain stimulation (DBS)
- Orthopedic evaluation and intervention
