What is Pediatric Physical Therapy?

Our Pediatric Physical Therapists work with families to provide support in the areas of gross motor development, motor planning and visual motor skills. These may include improving and working with muscle tone, strength and development, range of movement, quality of movement, eye-hand coordination, attention to task and sensory integration. We see children from birth through adolescence with health problems related to injury, disease, or congenital conditions.

We look at the quality of a child's movements such as their pace and gait when they learn to walk, their balance and coordination skills, regaining range of motion after an injury or from trouble during birth, or the pressure they are able to use during play. Physical Therapists are concerned with helping children reach their full developmental potential and realizing their full range of motion to improve their quality of life.

Pediatric Physical therapy provides evaluation, intervention and consultation in the following areas:

Gross motor development
Muscle tone and strength
Posture/postural control
Pre-gait and gait training
Locomotion patterns
Neuromuscular function
Endurance
Musculo-skeletal conditions
Body alignment
Environmental adaptations/seating and positioning
Wheelchair positioning and mobility
Splinting/bracing/orthotics
Physical therapists may incorporate many intervention approaches, including stretching, massage, mobilization, strengthening and endurance training to enhance the child's capabilities and prevent deformities and contractures. We also assess and modify environmental obstacles that might impede optimal performance.

With physical therapy, kids build strength and improve motor function, balance and coordination in fun, creative ways. In fact, most of the work we do is based in play... it’s the most positive way to get children motivated and involved. That’s why you’ll see swings, ball pits, climbing walls and all kinds of toys in our clinics. They’re important for your child’s therapy and they also help us create the child-centered environments that help our clients thrive

Occupational therapy (OT) treatment focuses on helping people with a physical, sensory, or cognitive disability be as independent as possible in all areas of their lives. Some people may think that occupational therapy is only for adults; kids, after all, do not have occupations. But a child's main job is playing and learning, and occupational therapists can evaluate kids' skills for playing, school performance, and daily activities and compare them with what is developmentally appropriate for that age group.
