Pediatric Physical Therapy

FYZICAL’s Pediatric clinics promote optimum movement & function. Physical Therapy is responsible for the prevention, identification and correction of movement caused by illness, injury, disease, developmental conditions, syndromes, and genetics. We love to develop relationships with not only the child but the parents, guardians, or caregivers. Physical Therapy doesn’t end at FYZICAL, we work with the Parents or Guardians on a home program for a better transition of skills into the child’s natural surroundings.

Kids love our Therapy Gym!

Hudson started his therapy right before his first birthday. He couldn’t do things most could do at his age. He has been making so much progress. He was not a fan of using his hands but now he claps, holds his bottle, and plays with toys. The progress he has made is something I couldn’t have helped him with on my own. Thank you FYZICAL!

Pediatric Physical Therapy Success Story

Elise was having a hard time walking when we first started. She also experienced foot pain with activities. She started out walking on her ankles with her toes pointed in and would not want to walk, run, or jump before this. She still has some trouble but no longer says she has pain! We continue with physical therapy for more progress.
