Your child is unique and needs a specialized treatment plan and individual attention when it comes to achieving movement and rehabilitation goals.
You need an experienced Pediatric Physical Therapist that understands your child, has age-appropriate, pediatric equipment and is skilled with using play to engage your child in their treatment plan. Our pediatric specialist in Dewitt, NY is experienced in working with children in various settings. We can help.
Help Your Child Reach Their Full Potential
Your child would benefit from working with our Pediatric Specialist if they:
- Are age 5-15 years old
- Have pain with movement(s), activity, during play
- Are not reaching age-appropriate milestones.
- Have a sports injury, such as an ankle sprain, a tear, muscle imbalances, shoulder pain, leg or foot pain, etc.
- Have frustration when playing with peers, or keeping up with their peers.

Your child or infant may also benefit from working with our Pediatric Specialist, regardless of their age, for the following conditions:
- Torticollis
- Toe walking
- Developmental Coordination Disorder
- Muscle imbalances
Your Child’s Treatment Will Look Like…
First, your child’s ability to move is examined, including how their movements relate to other children of the same age.
Next, our specialist breaks down your child’s movement patterns to figure out if the problem is due to weakness, muscle imbalance, or difficulty with motor control.
According to these findings, an individualized treatment plan is developed to help your child reach their goals and get back to doing what they love.
From there, your child will work with our specialist to carry out the treatment plan using age-appropriate, pediatric equipment and use of play to engage your child in this plan. This is where your child will grow to love working with their therapist, and even find it fun!
