Children who have suffered an injury, undergone surgery, have a congenital condition or developmental delays can benefit from physical therapy programs. Our physical therapy team can assess joint range of motion, muscle power, neurological function, motor control and posture to improve a child’s balance, coordination, strength and endurance.
Focus is on the patient’s ability to participate in movement activities such as crawling, walking, running, playing games and participating in sports. In addition, physical therapists can help patients who rely on mobility devices learn to navigate safely in various environments. Other areas of focus can include:
Gait retraining for toe-walking by working on range of motion, strengthening, and incorporating different sensory techniques.
Torticollis
Comprehensive services in consultation with orthotist if needed.
