What to Expect: Supporting Your Child's Developmental Journey

0 to 2 Months

Foundation & Observation Phase

Initial Adjustment:

This is a quiet period where the body adapts to the supportive therapy. The focus is on creating a nurturing internal environment for potential progress.

Following Protocols:

Adhering to the integrated therapy plan (speech, occupational, etc.) is critical during this stage to provide a consistent and supportive framework for your child.

Observing Baselines:

Our specialists, along with your family, will carefully observe your child’s baseline skills and behaviors to effectively track and understand future developmental changes.

2 to 6 Months

Developmental Emergence Phase

Potential Behavioral Shifts:

During this phase, some families begin to report positive changes in areas such as eye contact, attention span, and a reduction in repetitive behaviors.

Enhanced Therapy Engagement:

You may notice your child showing increased engagement, responsiveness, or learning readiness during their regular speech and occupational therapy sessions.

Communication Attempts:

Subtle but meaningful improvements in non-verbal or verbal communication attempts, as well as social awareness, may start to emerge.

6 to 12+ Months

Integration & Progress Phase

Improved Social Interaction:

Any initial gains in social interaction with family members and peers may become more consistent and integrated into your child’s daily life.

Cognitive & Learning Support:

This period may show the supportive therapy’s role in aiding cognitive skills, learning abilities, and overall comprehension.

Long-Term Developmental Trajectory:

Our goal is to support your child’s long-term developmental path. Continued and consistent traditional therapies are essential to build upon any progress.

Families Who Found Support at Liv Hospital

"In Bulgaria, we tried various treatments, including more than a year of speech therapy, but we saw very little progress. That’s why we decided to come to Liv Hospital in Turkey. Just one month after the first cellular therapy session, we noticed remarkable improvements in our child’s behavior and learning abilities. After the second treatment, these positive changes continued—he is more aware of people around him, his sentences are becoming longer, and he communicates much better."

"Hello, my name is Cristina. This is my daughter Julia. We came from Serbia, from the city of Skopje. Julia has autism, and we came here to undergo cellular treatment. We have had the first two doses and already saw truly remarkable results. Julia had severe sleep problems—she hadn’t slept properly for years—and we also struggled with her digestive issues. After the first two doses, she started sleeping very well, and her digestive health improved significantly. Now we have come for the third and fourth doses, and we hope for even more positive progress."
