Developmental Delays (Global and Isolated Domains)
Early Milestone Assessment & Development Care
Overview
Developmental delays occur when a child does not reach milestones (speech, motor, cognitive, social) at the expected age. We provide structured evaluation and early intervention to bridge the gap.
We focus on early identification to leverage the maximum learning potential of the young brain.
Common Symptoms & Indications
- ✕ Not smiling by 3 months
- ✕ No head control by 5 months
- ✕ Not sitting by 9 months
- ✕ No words or communication by 18 months
Clinical Procedure & Diagnostics
Standardized developmental testing (such as DASII or clinical milestone charting), identifying the specific delay domains, and designing targeted early stimulation therapies.
Key Recovery Benefits
- ✓ Early identification of developmental issues
- ✓ Maximized brain plasticity benefits
- ✓ Targeted stimulation in lagging areas
- ✓ Support for successful school integration
