Does not sit, does not crawl. What to do?: recommendations for specialists and parents of infants in the first year of life

Why do we undergo rehabilitation from the moment of birth, yet see no effect? Why have we done so many massages, but the child still does not walk at 1.5 years? What is the main focus of rehabilitation in the first year of a baby's life, and how can a mother understand that the specialist has chosen the right method? This book not only answers these questions but also reveals the essence of the rehabilitation process, prioritizing the choice of methods to realize a child's motor potential at an early age. The book is co-authored by a rehabilitation physician and a neurologist for parents and specialists—those who have faced delays in their child's motor development or help parents overcome difficulties. It provides an algorithm for choosing rehabilitation methods that every specialist working with children aged 1-2 years should know, and typical mistakes are discussed. In an accessible language, with examples and illustrations, it describes the sequence of exercises to stimulate movements, some of which any parent can learn and apply independently. The book will allow specialists to speak the same language as parents, and parents will not have to bite their elbows over lost time, but instead will confidently and calmly navigate the path to realizing their child's potential.
