Touch Therapy for Liddle Kidz™ with Autism (ASD) | Chicago | Lake Villa, IL | USA

The Touch Therapy for Liddle Kidz™ with Autism (ASD) is coming to Chicago (Lake Villa), IL. This 2-day intensive professional training, taught by Certified Pediatric Massage Master Teacher Tina Allen, will be held at Birth to Three Therapy & Beyond.

Currently they provide individual and small group therapies for physical, occupational, speech and developmental therapy, as well as counseling.

Now a little about Chicago, a city of “firsts” . . . first city to use the word "jazz”, first planetarium in the Western World, first atomic reaction, first steel-framed skyscraper, first elevated train system and first commercial air flight. Indeed, the Windy City has a style and pace all its own. Little wonder that the Chairman of the Board christened it, "My kind of town!"

Chicago is also a leading cultural and educational center. Today, the University of Chicago, University of Illinois-Chicago, DePaul University, and Northwestern University combine with smaller schools to create a modern-day Alexandria, and iconic institutions like the Art Institute of Chicago and Oriental Theatre don't merely bring culture to the city – they share Chicago's own brand with the world.

Chicagoans know how to play as well as to enrich, and even first-time tourists recognize the city's symbiotic relationship with the Bears, Bulls, Cubs, and White Sox. Plus, Historic Navy Pier and Brookfield Zoo provide great places to spend the day with kids. Meanwhile, Lake Shore Park, Lincoln Park, and Grant Park are popular for their jogging paths and for hosting public galas like the Chicago Jazz Festival.Yes, there is jazz in Chicago . . . and rock, and soul, and even Cajun. The nightscape is rich in quality and possibility. One night you're ambling around the North Side's pubs or dance clubs; another, you're tucked into a crowded booth in Buddy Guy's on the South Side. The flourishing dining scene, too, leaves no stone uncovered. In addition to historic standbys – steakhouses, Italian restaurants, and dog and burger joints – there's a truly international palate of choices, from churrasco to sushi, pelmeni to sweetbreads.

And then there are the people of Chicago, whose wry wit, Midwestern values, and friendly demeanor make the city one of the world's most hospitable. Combine that with a wealth of diversions and an awe-inspiring skyline, and it's easy to see why Chicago has been romanticized in poetry, song, TV, and film time and time again. Indeed, Chicago is now more than ever "everybody's kind of town."
