PHYSICAL THERAPY

Physical therapy specializes in the evaluation and treatment of diagnoses that limit physical function during daily activities.  The pediatric physical therapists at the Pediatric Learning Center, Inc. specialize in developing or restoring your child’s ability to perform movements like rolling, crawling, walking, running, and jumping - also known as gross motor movements.  

​

Our therapists provide a comprehensive evaluation to examine key components of movement including strength, range of motion, flexibility, balance, posture, body mechanics, coordination, and endurance.  

Our physical therapists combine thorough observation and standardized assessment of a child’s current abilities with the parents’ concerns and goals for their child to develop a personalized physical therapy plan to address the child’s individual needs related to:  
 

• Gross motor skill development

• Therapeutic exercise

• Strengthening programs

• Selection and implementation of appropriate orthoses/bracing

• Selection and implementation of appropriate mobility equipment

• Infant massage

• Neurodevelopmental facilitation
