All parents want the best for their children. All parents want to help their children achieve their full potential. Snowdrop, who provide programmes of developmental stimulation for brain injured children, are to extend their work to well, uninjured children to help parents give their children the best start in life in terms of their physical, intellectual and social development.
'Brain Injured Children' - Tapping the Potential Within,' has been written by Andrew Brereton, the founder of Snowdrop. Snowdrop provides programmes of home based developmental stimulation intended to harness the inherent plasticity of a child's brain in order to promote recovery of function after brain injury.
When the parents of a child with cerebral palsy contact Snowdrop for the first time, the most pressing issue they want to discuss seems to be language and communication development. At Snowdrop, we believe we have developed a unique therapeutic approach for this problem.
For decades, the treatment of children's neuro - developmental problems, - difficulties including cerebral palsy, autism, PDD, AD(H)D and problems such as learning difficulties--- has focused upon either controlling symptoms or upon behavioural principles. Now a new approach, sponsored by Snowdrop is tackling these problems from a neuro - cognitive perspective.
Andrew Brereton, the founder of Snowdrop Child Development Consultants has authored a new book titled 'Cerebral palsy: A guide to understanding and helping your child.' in which he describes his radical new approach to promoting recovery of function in children with cerebral palsy and other developmental disabilities.
A new treatment regime for children with cerebral palsy and other developmental disabilities has been developed by Snowdrop Child Development consultants. The treatment is called 'neuro-cognitive therapy' and is presented in the form of a programme, which families carry out at home for several hours per day.
