Description

Do you want to work to improve the quality of life of a child? 


Occupational Therapy is a form of intervention in which the therapist and child work together to develop or improve the necessary skills for daily living through activity and "play"-the child's main "occupation."  


A physical therapist is concerned with a child’s ability to participate in movement activities such as crawling, walking, running, playing games and participating in sports. In addition, you'll see how physical therapists can help the children who rely on mobility devices learn to navigate safely in various environments.


Speech Therapy treats communication challenges, both expressive and receptive, that causes 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.
