Hear from Richardson-area families who found breakthrough results

"Starting something new, especially for your kids, can make any parent feel nervous and uneasy, to say the least. However, after day one and day two, I was blown away. Dr. Kayla was extremely patient with my son who had a few rough days, but she helped him push through. Seeing the improvement within a few days was so exciting and shocking. We can't wait to see y'all again in a few months."
Rachel Pacheco
"Truly blown away by how amazing Dr. Tiffany and Dr. Kayla are. I took my son for a two week intensive and watched him grow tremendously. Not only are they knowledgeable, they are patient and kind. Their commitment to my son's progress means more than I can put into words."
Sarah Hall
"By day two of the first week we were already seeing positive changes in our daughter's motor skills, balance and strength. By the end of the first week she was walking independently and doing things we were not sure she would be able to do in the next 6 months let alone in one week. I truly wish we had found them sooner!!"
Bailey Funke
"Dr. Tiffany was excellent- professional, knowledgeable, kind, and motherly. It was truly amazing how much progress we saw during our intensive. I had been working with our baby on rolling every single day with traditional PT exercises since he was 2 months old, and he just wasn’t getting it. On day 9 of the intensive, I took him home and he rolled independently 6 times. He hasn’t stopped rolling since! I am excited to see what skills he can achieve next with Dallas DMI! Really impressed with the doctors and the facility was extremely clean and just what you would want for your child."
"We have done 5 intensives with Dallas DMI since Jan 2024! We have watched our daughter grow so much physically and even intellectually during this time! She is strong willed, but Dr. Tiffany and Emily have found ways to work with our daughter to reach her full potential! They are honest, they provide great feedback and are real about the dedication it takes both with them and at home to see these changes last."
"Our son completed his first intensive in February of this year, and we were truly astonished at the progress he made during those two weeks. We were also thoroughly impressed at the knowledge and genuine care that Dr. Tiffany and Emily provide. We look forward to scheduling another intensive and continuing to be a part of the Dallas DMI family."

Frequently Asked Questions

Learn more about cerebral palsy physical therapy near me

What is DMI therapy and how does it help children with cerebral palsy?

Dynamic Movement Intervention (DMI) is a specialized pediatric physical therapy approach that uses carefully designed exercises against gravity to challenge your child's neurological system. This provokes specific motor responses and stimulates neuroplasticity—your child's brain's remarkable ability to reorganize and form new neural pathways. Unlike traditional therapy that works within current abilities, DMI actively engages the brain to create lasting motor improvements for children with cerebral palsy, hypotonia, hypertonia, and other neurological conditions.

How long are the cerebral palsy intensive therapy programs?

Our DMI intensive programs run for 2 weeks with daily sessions Monday through Friday. You can choose between once-daily sessions (10 total sessions) or twice-daily sessions (20 total sessions). Each session is 55 minutes long. The twice-daily intensive is our recommended approach for children who can benefit from higher exposure to movement challenges, as it promotes faster neural adaptations and meaningful progress through increased repetition and neuroplasticity.

What results can I expect from a cerebral palsy intensive at Dallas DMI?

 Families often see breakthrough motor milestone gains during and after intensives. Children may begin rolling independently, sitting with improved balance, crawling, standing, or taking independent steps—achievements that may have seemed months or years away with traditional therapy. The repetition and challenge provided during intensive therapy creates automatic responses that become functional skills. Results vary by child, but our focus on neuroplasticity helps children with cerebral palsy develop new neural pathways for lasting motor improvements.
