Physical Therapy (PT)
and its role in development
We address how the muscles function and coordinate, which will help your child perform everyday tasks such as walking, running, and achieving good posture. For babies, this includes rolling, sitting, crawling, and walking.
Our therapists are specialized in therapeutic handling based on developmental kinesiology. We work directly with the child as well as with you to provide suggestions on activities, toys, and positions. In doing so, this will help your child move and explore his or her environment while encouraging proper alignment and promoting development. Early PT will prevent future injury, health risks, and pain in the later years of life.
