Day 1
Callum had a good eval the first morning morning with the owner Dr. Josh. The Infinity team consists of doctors or specialists in functional neuroscience, chiropractic care, neuromotor rehabilitation and nutrition.
The team decided on a treatment plan. They were going to really work on his reflexes and oxygen levels. They also discovered he had an upper lip tie that can contribute to tension through the body's facia nerve (this runs from your mouth all the way down to your toes). After first eval, the doctors think the delay in walking could be auto immune related, or he could have a very slight diagnosis of cerebral palsy. They said that how his body responds to treatments throughout the week would give them a better idea of what may be going on.
Callum will spend some time in an oxygen tank over the next few days. His O2 levels while seated were on the border, and when he stood up his oxygen levels dropped which makes activities a lot harder for him. When we go home the doctors told Callum to eliminate dairy and gluten to reduce any inflammation. He mentioned Callumβs ankles were some of the tightest he has felt in a while.
Day 2
Detox went well this am. It was really hot in the hyperbaric oxygen chamber and Andy and Callum were drenched with sweat when they came out. They said that it does get warm in there but it is probably his body detoxing
Cal had a really good day today. We got to go in for his session this afternoon to see some of the tech they use and also exercises we will be incorporating at home.

It has been awesome to see the progress he has made this week with his reflexes and moving around better. His gate and stance is getting stronger. I know some good sleep this weekend will help as we have been on the go, and our schedule has been weird with naps.
Day 4
Callum walked about 100 steps this morning! He had a consistent care team all week. The guy in the middle, Mr. Taylor has been his main doctor
Overall feelings
We feel really positive moving forward. Dr. Josh feels confident that Callum will walk. After eliminating some of the reflexes, getting more oxygen, and getting things communicating how they should, we should see improvements down the road.
We are going to come back the week before school starts for another intensive. They think a two week stretch would be the most beneficial for consistency but once school starts that will be hard. We will be looking at our schedules to see what would work best for us.
