Mia was born with a condition that caused scoliosis, a curvature of the spine, that increased difficulties with her daily activities. However, Mia does not let her diagnosis hinder her abilities. In 2022, she began receiving therapy at the Children’s Rehabilitation Institute TeletonUSA (CRIT). With hard work and consistency, Mia can now sit, crawl, and pull to stand independently.
Physical therapy has played a crucial role in her journey, helping her stretch and strengthen the necessary muscles to limit the progression of her scoliosis and allow her to reach her full functional potential.
Mia’s resilience knows no boundaries as she continues to push herself further. She is making strides in riding a bike and taking steps with assistance. Her determination is truly inspiring, and we couldn’t be prouder of her accomplishments. Way to go, Mia!
