Pediatric physical therapy strives to enable children to move through their world as independently as possible. Physical therapists improve range of motion, balance, strength, coordination, gait, heart and lung endurance, and delayed motor development. These therapies address gross motor abilities like sitting, standing, walking, and crawling to assist your child in leading an active life.
There are many reasons a physical therapist may be right for your child. They include:
- developmental delays
- low muscle tone
- cerebral palsy
- orthopedic disabilities/injuries
- genetic disorders
- head injury
- limb deficiencies
- heart and lung conditions
- birth defects
- scoliosis
Physical therapy can encourage your child to grow in their self esteem and spirit so they can live a playful and active life.
