Mukhammad is 4 years old. He has autism spectrum disorder and delayed psycho-speech development. By age 2, he experienced developmental regression: Mukhammad lost attention, stopped speaking, and began displaying stereotypical movements and self-stimulation behaviors.
Throughout the intensive course, work focused on developing requesting skills. Mukhammad learned to use an alternative communication system with special PECS cards to express his needs. The token system helped establish cooperation, and his behavior normalized during exercises.
Sessions with a sensory integration specialist and an art therapist were conducted in a playful manner. The educators aimed to address deficits in Mukhammad’s muscle and tactile systems. Elements of aromatherapy and plasticine modeling were used, and efforts were made to develop his gross and fine motor skills. Mukhammad’s tactile and visual perception improved, and he learned the names of colors.
With the adaptive physical education coach, Mukhammad became much more resilient and acquired new skills. By the end of the course, he could crawl, jump over obstacles, throw a ball, and even ride a scooter independently, without adult support!
The world relies on people like you! Thanks to your help, Mukhammad completed his rehabilitation course!
