Physical therapy primarily focuses on motor control, balance, motor planning, walking, running, and changing positions. Our pediatric physical therapists specialize in treating movement disorders, orthopedic impairments, chronic illnesses, and other developmental delays.
Neuro-Developmental Therapy (NDT)
We offer Neuro-Developmental Therapy (NDT), a treatment approach well suited for children with cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, autism, and other neurological disorders. NDT employs handling techniques that teach children how to move more normally while increasing muscle tone. Parental involvement is key to NDT, but they are not expected to go it alone. Our staff teaches parents how to work with their children at home. This can help children progress more quickly.
