With clinics conveniently located in Boca Raton, Lake Worth, and West Palm Beach, we bring expert pediatric physical therapy closer to your family. Our partnerships across Palm Beach County help us serve children in schools, homes, and other community settings when needed.
Each child’s therapy plan is carefully designed to meet their specific physical challenges and milestones. Whether they’re improving gross motor skills, recovering from surgery, or working toward better mobility, we adapt our approach to fit their unique journey.
We equip families with practical tools, techniques, and resources to reinforce physical therapy progress at home. By integrating exercises and strategies into daily routines, we help ensure continued improvement and confidence.
Our therapists design engaging, supportive sessions to address each child’s physical development goals. Here’s what physical therapy can achieve for your child:
Physical therapy focuses on enhancing your child’s ability to perform large movements that involve the arms, legs, and entire body. Through engaging activities like climbing, crawling, jumping, and running, we target specific gross motor challenges. Our therapists use evidence-based exercises to help children develop the foundational motor skills needed for everyday activities and play, ensuring progress feels rewarding and fun.
Balance and coordination are critical for your child’s safety and mobility. Our therapists work on exercises that improve postural control, stability on uneven surfaces, and smooth transitions between movements. We use tools like balance boards, obstacle courses, and age-appropriate games to build these skills in a way that feels natural and enjoyable for your child.
Building strength and endurance enables children to participate more fully in their daily lives, from school activities to recreational play. Our physical therapists design progressive strength-training exercises and aerobic activities tailored to your child’s abilities. By targeting muscle groups essential for their specific goals, we help improve stamina, posture, and overall physical capability.
For children with mobility challenges, functional mobility is a key focus. We address difficulties with walking, navigating stairs, or using mobility aids like crutches or wheelchairs. Through personalized interventions, we teach children how to move more efficiently and confidently in their environment, fostering independence in school, home, and community settings.
No two children are the same, and neither are their therapy plans. Our therapists conduct thorough evaluations to understand your child’s unique strengths, challenges, and interests. We create an individualized treatment plan that incorporates activities your child enjoys, keeping them motivated and engaged throughout their therapy journey.
