Therapy Services

Speech Therapy

Speech therapy will be recommended by your pediatrician if your child babbles, has trouble putting sentences together, stutters or has trouble with sensory processing. Speech and language disorders are often common in children with autism, down syndrome, cleft-palate, sensory dysfunction, verbal apraxia, head injury, and many other syndromes.

Pediatric speech therapy treats communication challenges, both expressive and receptive, that cause children to have difficulty with verbal communication. Speech therapy also treats oral motor concerns, such as chewing and swallowing, as well as articulation, auditory processing and social skills.

Disorders of speech are characterized by difficulty in producing speech sounds correctly, omitting or distorting sounds, or difficulty with producing a few sounds with no pattern.

Physical Therapy

Pediatric Physical Therapists assist children in developing and improving their mobility so that they can safely participate in activities at home, in school, on the playground, and in their community.

We help children:

Gain the strength, endurance and flexibility.
Develop skills necessary to sit, crawl, walk, run and play independently.
Effectively use mobility aids such as wheelchairs, walkers, and orthotics.
Having difficulty maintaining balance during motor activities including climbing stairs, running, jumping or skipping.

Occupational Therapy

The word, “Occupation,” means, “that which occupies most of one’s time,” or, “the activities done for the majority of one’s day that give one’s life meaning. “The occupation of a child is his or her play and activities of daily living; the acquisition of both being necessary to help a child to develop the skills necessary to live an independent and fulfilling life as an adult.

Our Pediatric Occupational Therapists facilitate the acquisition of self-help, play, and learning skills for infants and children by improving their motor, sensory, behavioral and cognitive skills. Pediatric Occupational Therapy helps children who:

Have trouble with the performance of self-care activities including: brushing teeth, combing hair, buttoning a shirt, tying shoes, using utensils such as a spoon or fork, etc.
Have difficulty with fine motor activities such as handwriting or using scissors.
Have difficulty with oral motor skills such as sucking from a bottle, chewing food, or using the tongue to move food to the back of the mouth to swallow it.
