THERAPY

THERAPY SERVICES

We in Madhur Special Shikshan Sansthan provide various therapy services to our students under the guidence of well trained therapists. These therapy services include-

Occupational Therapy (OT) promotes the health and well-being of individuals who have conditions that are mentally, physically, developmentally, or emotionally disabling by helping them to improve their ability to perform tasks in their daily living and working environments. This type of therapy assists individuals in performing activities of all types, ranging from using a computer to caring for daily needs such as dressing, cooking, and eating.

Although Puducherry does not have sufficient number of professionals practicing OT, understanding the importance of this therapy in enabling children to develop skills for their everyday life, Madhur Special Shikshan Sansthan had started an OT division in 2015. The therapist evaluates the child’s abilities, recommends and provides therapy either in groups or individually as per the needs of the child. The most important aspect of this therapy is the involvement of the family. The needs, desires, and values of the child and family drive the direction of their assessments and intervention. The focus of OT intervention directly reflects the child’s and/or family’s priorities.

Physiotherapy plays a vital role for EIC. The services are provided in the form of individual sessions, group therapy, counselling, and a parent training programme. Each therapy provided to the child helps them to build up his/her personal self-help skills, social skills to help integrate with society, functional academic skills, and group activities for overall development. Thus, under EIC, all emotional, social, psychological, mental, physical and functional aspects are considered as part of the treatment for the child. It is by far one of the largest early intervention programmes in Puducherry with over 20-30 beneficiaries every month.

The most important goal of speech therapy is to provide state-of-the-art therapy facilities free of cost to the disadvantaged population to whom these services are either not available or too expensive. The main area of focus is to improve the child’s existing disability through individualized therapy sessions thereby making them as independent as possible which is an important step towards social inclusion and acceptance.

The children covered under this therapy are those:

  • who cannot produce speech sounds, or cannot produce them clearly
  • who have problems with speech rhythm and fluency, such as stuttering, stammering, etc.
  • who have a problem with understanding and producing language
  • who have cognitive communication impairment such as attention, memory, and problem-solving disorders
  • who have swallowing difficulties

Video/audio software is used for enhancing semantic and syntactic abilities, articulation drilling, and vocal parameters include voicing, pitch, and loudness. It will provide visual feedback which will encourage the child to perform better. Madhur Special Shikshan Sansthan has had this facility since 2018 and 30 children are provided training using this software.
