Celebrating a Professional Milestone: Marina Completes CME Internship in Queensland

We’re proud to share an important milestone in Marina Birnfeld’s professional journey. Marina has successfully completed her Cuevas Medek Exercises (CME) Internship in Queensland, further strengthening her expertise in advanced paediatric physiotherapy and dynamic movement therapy.

This achievement reflects Marina’s ongoing commitment to evidence-based practice, continuous learning, and delivering the highest standard of care to babies and children with motor development challenges.

What Is the CME Internship and Why Is It Significant?

Cuevas Medek Exercises (CME) is a highly specialised therapeutic approach used worldwide to support children with motor delays and neurological conditions. The method focuses on active movement, postural control, balance, and independence by challenging the child’s nervous system to respond and adapt.

Completing a CME internship is a rigorous process that requires:

• Intensive hands-on clinical training

• Close supervision by experienced CME professionals

• Application of CME principles with real paediatric cases

• Demonstrated clinical reasoning, safety, and precision in practice

This stage of training represents a deep immersion into the CME philosophy and techniques, bridging theory with advanced clinical application.

What This Means for Families Working With Marina

For families, Marina’s CME internship completion means access to highly specialised care grounded in international best practice. Her training allows her to:

• Apply CME principles with strong clinical judgement

• Adapt exercises precisely to each child’s abilities

• Work confidently with complex developmental presentations

• Focus on functional, meaningful movements that support daily life

Whether a child is developing early motor skills or working through more significant movement challenges, Marina’s approach is structured, intentional, and tailored to each child’s unique needs.

A Commitment to Excellence in Paediatric Physiotherapy

Marina’s decision to pursue advanced CME training reflects her broader philosophy as a paediatric physiotherapist: movement matters, and quality intervention can make a lasting difference in a child’s independence and confidence.

By completing her internship in Queensland, she continues to build international-level expertise while bringing that knowledge directly to the families she supports in her practice.

Looking Ahead

This milestone marks another step in Marina’s ongoing commitment to professional growth and clinical excellence. CME training is not a static achievement, but part of a continuous journey of refining skills, deepening understanding, and staying aligned with the latest research and best practices in paediatric movement therapy.

We celebrate this achievement and look forward to the positive impact it continues to have on children and families under Marina’s care.
