Since April of 2018 Sandeep (our physiotherapist) has been coming to shuktara twice a week. We thought you might like to see how the girls at Lula Bari are doing – check out the photos and short videos below.
Sandeep visits Anna Bari as well for Subhash, Bappa, Aakash and Sumon.
Prity
Prity is most comfortable sitting – but Sandeep is trying to get her to stand for longer periods to strengthen her legs.
Pappu says:
“Prity is concentrating more now with physio because as she is 18 years old her study at REACH school is over. She has more time to improve herself with the help of the physiotherapist and she is doing well. It will take a long time for Prity to improve her movement.”
Moni
When Moni came to shuktara she would only crawl. Now with regular physiotherapy she is standing and walking more confidently.
Pappu says:
“Moni is improving a lot and Sandeep thinks if she listens to him then she can walk freely.”
Guria
Physiotherapy for Guria is all about straightening, stretching, strengthening. She works very hard at her exercises twice a week.
Pappu says:
“Guria is trying hard but her disability [means that] most parts of her body don’t act together. His aim is to coordinate Guria’s movement however that will take a long time.”
