The Doman-Delacato Method advocated intensive cross-patterning with the child for up to 8 hours a day using 2-3 people to carry out the exercise. Does this remain the current practise?
It is true that the original Doman-Delacato Therapy practised in the 60’s was an 8 hour programme patterning programme administered to mobility impaired severely brain injured children. However today, after many years of research and development by Dr Carl Delacato, behavioural and learning delay children can be neurologically rehabilitated with an average daily programme of 2-3 hours, whilst the more severe brain injured children with mobility concerns still require some patterning as part of an holistic programme.
