Pediatric Physical Therapy

Pediatric Physical Therapists provide treatment for children who have delayed gross motor skills and/or lack flexibility, strength or endurance. Our physical therapy program is on a one-on-one basis with a licensed physical therapist. Each session is individualized to meet both the child and parent's needs. Treatments may include exercises and or therapeutic activities that are specifically geared toward improving strength, balance, coordination,and endurance. Therapy goals are established with the parents to focus on helping children improve their function, mobility, relieve pain and prevent or limit permanent physical disabilities. Therapists teach parents and children to use adaptive equipment, such as crutches, walkers and wheelchairs and also evaluate and make recommendations for orthotics.
