Physical Therapy
Setting kids up for a lifetime of healthy movement.
Our highly-trained physical therapists work with children on a wide range of mobility and gross motor skills. We believe the involvement of everyone who cares for your child is an important part of the physical therapy process. We collaborate with parents, caregivers, teachers, pediatricians and other professionals to achieve the best outcomes for your child.
