What are the Neurological “Soft Signs” of Healing to look for during the start of your care plan? When care first starts, the biggest changes usually aren’t the big milestones. They’re the little ones that will add up to the BIG ones!! 😍
You might start to notice things like:
👏 Deeper, more restful sleep
👏 A better appetite or easier digestion
👏 Stronger tone or better posture
👏 More balance and smoother coordination
👏 Less sensory overwhelm
👏 Calmer transitions and fewer meltdowns
These are what we call neurological “soft signs” of healing.
They’re the body’s way of saying, “Hey, I’m starting to regulate and rebalance!” Meaning, exactly what we want!! 💪
As your child’s nervous system settles and strengthens, these subtle shifts start to stack up, building the foundation for the bigger, more visible progress ahead (like speech, motor skills, and emotional growth). Those BIG things come after the soft signs of healing.
Healing happens from the inside out 👉 foundation first, then complexity.
So if you’re seeing these little wins early on, celebrate them and make sure to tell us about them at your next visit! 💙 They mean your child’s body is already starting to do the work. 💪
