Physical Therapy at Children's Therapy Works plays a vital role in the complete approach we use to treat most of the kids we see.
A Physical Therapist is specially trained to understand the inner workings of muscles throughout our bodies. Many children exhibit difficulties in daily tasks as simple as having correct posture, running, walking or even sitting in a chair. Many children have balance and coordination issues due to strength or postural instability, which can also contribute to more complex issues like feeding, breathing and communication. Our PT's provide our clients with correct positioning to facilitate correct oral awareness in a wide array of clients while working with the Oral Motor Therapists. The Physical Therapy team prides themselves as being a dynamic component of the therapy process. The PT team uses our in house mineral water pool for aquatic therapy and our well trained Dressage Horses for Hippotherapy when appropriate. Physical Therapists are also well known for understanding and administering Neuro. Developmental Techniques ( NDT ) as appropriate.
