PHYSICAL THERAPY

Pediatric physical therapists help improve gross motor skills (tasks that involve large muscle groups like walking, jumping, and throwing) by encouraging kids to do things like play on large exercise balls to build strength, run and hop to focus on coordination, and work on balance by utilizing a balance beam or standing on one foot. Additionally, all of our staff is trained in the SCERTS Model: a comprehensive educational approach for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Physical therapy can assist with:

• Orthopedic injuries
• Sports injuries
• Balance
• Gait training
• Strengthening
• Core stability
• Coordination
• Achieving developmental milestones
• Treatment of neurological disorders
