Working closely with the Occupational Therapy and Speech Language departments, The Physical Therapy team diagnoses and evaluates a wide array of children that include all types of diagnosis.
At Children's Therapy Works, a Physical Therapy evaluation provides answers to many questions that are raised resulting from Occupational and Speech/Language Evaluations.
Some children, like those who struggle with physical disabilities require a Physical Therapy Evaluation to assess common areas of concern, such as…Range of Motion, Muscle Strength, Motor Control to name a few.
The Physical Therapy Team at Children's Therapy Works prides themselves on their ability to identify "hidden" difficulties that can cause a myriad of functional and learning difficulties in children that ordinarily would not be seen for Physical Therapy Evaluation.
For instance, take the common child that doesn't sit properly in his/her chair and exhibits poor fine motor control skills, or the "picky eater" who slouches at the dinner table and lets not forget the little ones who are a little late to walk or crawl.
Not just for the physically challenged, a Physical Therapy Evaluation is a key component of most children's diagnostic procedure. This viewpoint has proven to be an extremely valuable component of holistic diagnosis.
Children's Therapy Works clinical teams rely on the comprehensive information recorded during our evaluation procedure to establish a solid baseline for your child's treatment plan. Don't forget, we're used to working together, after all, it often takes OT, PT and Speech to cover all the angles. We call it the Full Circle Approach.
