What is it?

Strength training is an excellent way to develop and build muscle to increase stability during functional movements and independence.

At KTW, our strength training can be completed with the child’s body weight or additional weights such as medicine balls. We also use resistance bands or equipment within the Spider Cage.

Who can benefit from it?

Anyone can benefit from strength training, particularly those that experience weakness leading to difficulties when complete functional tasks, such as walking. Strength training can also has a positive impact on spasticity and posture.
