Our Location
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.
Occupational Therapy
Your child's only job is to be a kid. Occupational therapists work with children who might need specialized assistance to lead independent, productive, and satisfying lives due to physical, developmental and/or social problems. Additionally, all of our staff is trained in the SCERTS Model: a comprehensive educational approach for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Our team is well versed in helping kids develop gross and fine-motor skills, handwriting, sensory processing/modulation, self-regulation, and more!
