Pediatric Therapies
Pediatric Physical Therapy
Children want and need to move through their world independently. Whether it’s focusing on developmental issues or recovery from illness or injury, we focus on assisting infants and children achieve the mobility needed to play, explore and function in their everyday lives.
Pediatric Occupational Therapy
We assist children, parents and caretakers in the development of skills that lead to independence in self-help, play, academic and social areas. This includes fine-motor coordination, handwriting, eating skills, age-appropriate independence, normal sensory response development, instruction for caregivers, and more.
Pediatric Speech-Language Therapy
Our Speech-language pathologists assist you in teaching your child to becoming a successful communicator and independent language learner through therapy in the areas of language and expression, interaction and communication, reading and writing skills, thinking skills, and eating and drinking.
Serial Casting
Our Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon, Ryan Price, DO and our team of pediatric physical and occupational therapists utilize a process known as serial casting to treat children who have tightness in their calf muscles, or difficulty standing or walking with their feet flat on the ground.
