Dynamic Movement Intervention (DMI) in Dubai
Dynamic Movement Intervention is a pediatric physiotherapy approach that helps infants and children build postural control, balance and functional movement using graded challenges with precise therapist support. At Bridges Speech Center in Dubai our team uses Dynamic Movement Intervention to stimulate neuroplastic change and to help children progress toward meaningful motor milestones in real life routines.
What Is Dynamic Movement Intervention?
Dynamic Movement Intervention is an intensive, hands on framework that elicits automatic postural responses through purposeful movement in different planes. The therapist provides the least assistance needed while the child learns to initiate protective reactions, midline control, transitions and verticalization. Because Dynamic Movement Intervention targets the nervous system, sessions focus on short, frequent trials that increase challenge as the child succeeds.
DMI therapy promotes alignment, activation against gravity and confidence in new positions. Dynamic Movement Intervention exercises often include reaching out of base of support, stepping responses, transitions to stand and perturbations that are safely scaled to the child’s current ability.
