Physical Therapy

Personalized physical therapy care

Pediatric Therapy is a multidisciplinary pediatric clinic that helps parents navigate through the unknowns of their child’s early development foundation and throughout their life. We are committed to providing exceptional care to children who require special attention and personalized care. At Pediatric Therapy, we believe that all children should be empowered to achieve their full potential and excel in their environment.

 

Physical therapists dedicated to the needs of your child

 

Our physical therapists are licensed health care professionals who can help your child reduce pain and improve or restore mobility. At Pediatric Therapy, our physical therapists work as a team to assess and treat motor deficits, including decreases in strength, range of motion, balance, coordination and endurance related to a variety of diagnoses. Activities like walking, running, squatting, sitting, posture, balance and strength deficits will be addressed as well.

 

We also work with patients with delayed milestones, rehabilitation post-injury or illness and provide extensive education on injury prevention. Through exercise and play as treatment tools, our physical therapy treatment plan works to maximize gross motor function to ensure each child can achieve independence across all community settings.

 

In addition to these physical therapy treatments, the physical therapists at Pediatric Therapy give parents home programs designed for their child’s age and diagnosis. These home programs allow the child to continue improving between their regular in-office appointments. Our therapists also work closely with other providers to evaluate the need for and obtain any equipment necessary for our patients including wheelchairs, walkers and orthotics. In additional to our services, AOPI Orthotic and Prosthetics works directly with our therapist and your child to ensure each fabrication is perfectly fit for your child.  They have set times in our clinics twice a month to supply, measure and adjust our patients in need of orthotics.
