2nd Physio appointment



After a lovely Christmas and lots of squatting and stretching on our tiptoes, Jonas was in top shape to meet Claire again :)

We had our 2nd appointment with her last week and she was really impressed with the way his quads and calf muscles have developed in such a short amount of time. He no longer feels the need to step back when coming back up from a squat and the muscle definition in his calf has increased again. 

Our next step is to get him to learn to balance all of his weight on his left foot. He already does it briefly, when kicking a ball or holding onto something, but our goal is for him to be able to hold the position a bit longer and keep strengthening his leg.

This was once again a very positive appointment that confirmed that he's got great flexibility and motricity.

Claire suggested we start using a balance board with him. We don't have one yet and most models are too big for him so we've just purchased a yoga balance pad and expect to have hours of fun with it!
