Euro-Team Therapy is an emerging new European pediatric approach to treating children with disabilities. Sessions include two, three, or four weeks of intensive physical therapy aimed at specific motor strengthening with the use of a Therasuit™ (see www.suittherapy.com for more information), pulleys, bungee cords and strength training equipment. Team Rehab began offering Euro-Team Therapy in the spring of 2003 in its state-of-the-art wellness and rehabilitation center. The therapy sessions make use of Team Rehab’s therapeutic pool, gym, treadmills and a variety of handicap-accessible Cybex equipment.

Lisa Krieg, MPT has been treating pediatric patients for 17 years and is certified in Suit Therapy. She has also traveled to Poland to see the latest techniques and strategies associated with Suit Therapy.

Sandy Larson, PT has been treating pediatric patients for 27 years and has also been trained in Suit Therapy.

Lindsey Shay, MSPT has been treating pediatric patients for 1 1/2 years.  She received suit therapy training in Michigan, including specific cage and spider cage exercises.
