"Rachael's program is a wonderful guide for parents, giving them the confidence to do what probably feels natural to them but is rarely discussed in the "parenting guide books" ... Working with our patients in vision therapy, I found that many had poor integration of early motor movement patterns ... What Rachael is offering is a way to avoid this problem by creating opportunity for natural learning." -Carol Marusich, OD, MS, FCOVD, Board of Directors, Great Western Council of Optometry.
