Pediatric Physical Therapy: Helping Children Thrive!
Pediatric physical therapy is a clinical approach designed to help children regain or improve functional abilities after injury, developmental delays, or physical impairments. At Balanced PT+W - Pediatrics + Scoliosis, our therapists are equipped with the skills, tools, and expertise to not only promote healing and reduce discomfort but to address underlying issues such as muscle weakness, joint stiffness, poor flexibility, and more. We create specialized plans tailored to meet each child’s unique needs, fostering growth and independence.
Our Holistic Approach to Pediatric Care
At Balanced PT+W - Pediatrics + Scoliosis, we focus on treating the whole child—not just a diagnosis or isolated body part. We believe every child deserves a chance to achieve their fullest potential, which is why our motto “Back to Life” inspires every individualized treatment plan we develop. Our therapists work closely with your family to ensure that therapy is engaging, effective, and empowering, helping your child move more confidently through life while preventing future complications.
Who Can Benefit from Pediatric Physical Therapy?
Children of all ages can benefit from physical therapy if they are experiencing difficulties in everyday activities, play, school participation, or sports due to pain, developmental delays, or other physical challenges. Whether your child is recovering from an injury or working toward developmental milestones, our therapy services are designed to support them in reaching their goals.
Conditions Treated with Pediatric Physical Therapy
Our experienced therapists address a wide range of orthopedic, neuromuscular, and developmental conditions. Here are just a few of the challenges we help children overcome every day:
DEVELOPMENTAL: Delayed milestones, hypotonia, torticollis, cerebral palsy
ORTHOPEDIC: Post-surgical recovery, scoliosis, kyphosis, sports injuries
NEUROMUSCULAR: Coordination disorders, gait abnormalities, balance deficits
SENSORY & FUNCTIONAL: Sensory processing difficulties, adaptive equipment needs
What to Expect at Balanced Physical Therapy + Wellness - Pediatrics + Scoliosis
When your child begins therapy with us, our first step is to listen, observe, and assess their unique challenges and goals. Your child’s first session will include a thorough evaluation to develop a comprehensive treatment plan that outlines the steps ahead. You will also receive instructions for exercises and strategies to practice at home, ensuring progress continues beyond our clinic.
From that point forward, therapy becomes a partnership between your family and our expert team. We work collaboratively to ensure your child’s recovery and growth are not just achievable but sustainable, so they can live life to the fullest.
Costs of Pediatric Physical Therapy Services
Our pediatric therapy services are typically covered by insurance, with no additional cost to the family for standard treatment sessions. However, certain specialized services—such as custom orthotic evaluations or adaptive equipment fittings—may require self-pay options.
Balanced PT+W - Pediatrics + Scoliosis is here to support your child every step of the way. Let us help your child grow, recover, and achieve their goals with compassionate care and expert therapy.
