This video instructs families with a baby with Microcephaly how to work with their baby. My name is Amy Sturkey, PT. I am a pediatric physical therapist in the US. I'd like to give some ideas to families who want to help their baby with Microcephaly due to the Zika virus. This video teaches a simple technique in how to work on head control and trunk strength while rolling from side to side. I taped this video specifically for families with a child with Microcephaly; however, this technique could be used with any child with a developmental delay who holds his/her shoulders elevated. I hope you find this idea useful and simple to follow through. My webpage is www.pediatricPTexercises.com My Facebook page is Pediatric Physical Therapy Exercises. I have apps on iTunes and Google play for Pediatric Physical Therapy Strengthening. However, these apps target children 3 and older. Feel free to contact me at amysturkey@gmail.com with questions, concerns or rave reviews!
