Marvelous May at Polfit!

It’s a Marvelous May at Polfit!

The Polfit team had a marvelous time at the L.A. Abilities Expo making lots of new friends and getting the chance to introduce our program to them. Meanwhile, our friends already attending Polfit were having wonderful moments of their own!

JACK has been steadily improving and attending Polfit a few months each year. We reported back in January that Jack stood alone with his crutches for up to 1 minute. On the last day of his most recent intensive session, Jack took 2 independent steps with crutches!

SAM ran for the first time in his life in the “Spider” at Polfit last month. This month, Sam is taking side-steps in the parallel bars independently, only holding on with one arm!

Hoppy Days at Polfit!

Hoppy Days Are  Here Again at Polfit!

While on the hunt for eggs, we also discovered some incredible achievements taking place at POLFIT!

SAM has been attending Polfit on a regular basis for years. A little over 10 years ago Sam’s mobility was limited to crawling. He has steadily improved over time and last month hit a HUGE MILESTONE… SAM RAN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HIS LIFE! With minimum assistance in the Spider, Sam ran on the treadmill as his teary-eyed mom looked on. It was a moment none of us here at Polfit – and most of all, Sam – will never forget!

JERRY has been doing well in many areas lately. The Polfit team often notices that cognitive improvements seem to accompany physical gains. Jerry has been taking so many steps on the treadmill that the therapists stopped counting his progress in steps, but now count it in time! Jerry’s speech has also improved tremendously and he has become more helpful in his rehabilitation process. 

ZIA celebrated her 3^rd birthday at Polfit last month! She has been tolerating her workouts better and better and can often be heard squealing with laughter when bouncing on a ball. She began pushing herself up to a stand in the Spider last week as well.

Lucky Times at Polfit!

HELLO POLFIT FAMILIES! 

We’re celebrating our patient’s GOOD LUCK this month at Polfit:

 LUCI’S family travelled to Polfit all the way from Argentina last month. During her time with us her strength and stamina greatly increased. She worked up to 30 minutes on the treadmill in the spider without breaks. By the end of the month she was running on the treadmill! Since returning home, her family reports she is doing “AMAZINGLY WELL” and bending her knee in a way they’ve never seen before!

MAISIE visited Polfit for the first time this month. When she arrived she was able to hold herself up independently on crutches for 20 seconds. After 3 weeks that time has increased to over 3 minutes! She also has less spasticity and is demonstrating improved stepping on the treadmill during Spider therapy. She has a wider gait and more purposeful steps.

CHARLES has been working hard for years, but came to Polfit for the first time for a week trial of the therapy. In that short time he went from needing full assistance to walk with a walker to being able to do so completely on his own. He loved working at Polfit and will be returning soon to see what milestone he can reach next.
