Neuromuscular Conditions
About Neuromuscular Disorders
Some children are born with or develop conditions that affect how their brain and nervous system control their muscles and movement. These children often require special care and attention during their growth to give them optimal function and independence as an adult. While surgery is sometimes necessary, it can often be avoided through dedicated therapy, bracing, stretching casts, injections, medications, and many other therapies that are constantly being developed. Routine surveillance is a critical part of care to allow us to intervene early with alternative therapies whenever possible. Our goal is to work together as a team to help your child live their best life.
