Diagnosis: Syndrome Arnold Chiari, hypoplasia of the brain, delayed speech, and language, alalia. They turned to the Institute for medical help when the girl was 4 years old. From birth – hypoxia, developmental delay. Before that, there were consultations with many specialists and appeals to many hospitals. The girl underwent multiple examinations and medical procedures. She took pills and injections every day. In the Mariupol rehabilitation center, we were advised to contact the Institute.

Now Margarita is 11 years old and she is undergoing the next stage of treatment at the Institute.
— At the time of contacting the doctors of the Institute, Margarita could not walk, get out of bed, she had severe muscle hypotonia, weak fine motor skills, constant vomiting, drooling, there was no swallowing reflex, did not distinguish tastes, did not react to speech, squeaked strongly, badly she slept, banged her head against the wall, tore the hair on her head, scratched herself, licked her hands.

After the first stage of treatment, Margarita already reacted to her name, she could hold a pencil in her hands, wave goodbye, and vomiting stopped. After each stage of treatment, the muscles became stronger, began to feel pain, which was not the case before, intracranial pressure decreased, she stopped taking diuretics, all allergic reactions went away, she begins to ask for their hands less and wears pants themselves. Now she can already swallow, her appetite has improved, she can drink juice from a straw herself, she can distinguish between tastes, she eats better what she likes, for example, mashed potatoes. She manages to grab the railing, climb stairs, point to objects that are of interest. For example, he brings me a remote control — this means he wants to watch TV, he needs to turn it on. She speaks new sounds, the words “dad”, “baba”, shows emotions, rejoices when he sees relatives. Mimicry has improved, the pointing gesture has become entrenched, and she is less afraid of public places and children. Great successes in the classroom with the speech therapist of the Institute, already indicates the numbers.

I am also very grateful for my health. I began to sleep more soundly, especially when I am at the institute, I see vivid dreams, sometimes, I look through whole interesting stories in my dreams. The kidneys began to function better, the head hurts less. Well, and the most important event for my husband and me after my treatment at the institute is the birth of our son Kirill, who is now 4 years old. They are very friendly with Margarita. When Cyril was little and cried, she felt sorry for him, stroked him.

Previously, Margarita and I came for treatment every 3 months, now – every six months. We have completely abandoned drug treatment!
