For Jay P., Noble’s Recreational Therapy is simply a lot of fun. While this therapy is designed to enhance a person’s independence in life activities, promote health and wellness, and reduce any limitations on living a fuller life, Noble’s Recreational Therapy service accomplishes all this by keeping fun front and center.
Because Jay’s Cerebral Palsy has left his right side weaker than his left, he and Recreational Therapist Lauren Seger use their time together to build strength and prolong his endurance. He also uses the time to increase his focus through games and activities he chooses. His favorites are bean bag toss, giant dominoes, action ball and card games.
