Neuro-Developmental Therapy Programs (NDTP) is a private practice run by Ian Hunter, a Neuro-Developmental Therapist since 1975. Ian Hunter graduated in Physical Education from Melbourne University, and studied for two years in the USA at the Philadelphia-based Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential. NDTP is located in Melbourne but services clients from all parts of Australia and overseas. The high cost of airfares and the difficulties involved in travelling with a brain injured child make it impractical for families to travel to Melbourne, so Ian Hunter travels frequently around Australia and the world to see clients.
Initially the child is carefully assessed, and an appropriate and specific therapy program is then devised and taught to the child’s parents. Once the child begins the program he is seen for reassessment every 3-4 months. Since the therapy needs time to take effect, there is usually no need for more frequent visits. If difficulties arise, communication by email or telephone can usually solve the problem, and videos can be sent.
