Down Syndrome: Early therapy helps make a difference!

Down Syndrome is a genetic condition that occurs when an individual has an extra copy of chromosome 21. This additional genetic material affects development, leading to characteristic physical features, varying degrees of intellectual disability, and potential health challenges such as heart defects, hearing loss, and thyroid disorders. While Down Syndrome is a lifelong condition, early intervention and proper medical care—including speech therapy, occupational therapy, and physical therapy—can help individuals lead fulfilling and independent lives. #EarlyIntervention #TherapyMatters #DownSyndromeSupport #DevelopmentalMilestones #AbilitiesNotDisabilities
