Example of Goshis experience with Look age 8months when started to take rehabilitation:Looks mother brought look as a baby with following problem like he is not using his hands to grasp toys, bottle of milk or use his hands to touch mother or father face or body, also not turning around when he is in the bed, floor, lifting his head up to see any articles and not crawling.
Look was treated by Goshi with strength training, sensory integration, spinal stimulation, encouraged standing balance using bungee ropes, vestibular therapy, roots approach.

Outcome: In 5th session that is after seven hours of treatment Look started to turn, look upward, started to grasp and pull everything this made his parents happy but also gave a lot of work for his mother to keep back things. Look showed further improvement like voluntary sitting, standing, and Look started to walk without support at the age of 2 where his mother was told he may not be as normal as his elder sister, which was very disappointing for the parent then. This was made success by Goshi. Now Look can walk, speak, play well.

Look can now work with his toys, he can use his hands very well for putting blocks, alphabets etc. Look parents were delighted of the intensive therapy what Goshi adopted and they were thankful for all improvement happened to Gentle Man Look.
