K.I.D.S. THERAPY PROGRAMS

Occupational therapy focuses on helping children develop the abilities necessary for the many “occupations” of childhood such as play, self care, learning, school performance, community skills, and socializing. Pediatric OT includes intervention aimed at developing the underlying sensory and motor foundation necessary for skill development, the development of compensatory strategies, and environmental adaptations needed for successful participation in daily life activities.

Physical therapy focuses on improving an individual’s developmental and functional abilities in the areas of mobility, health and fitness. Physical therapists also promote safe and effective body mechanics throughout daily life activities.

Speech Therapy is devoted to helping children develop both verbal and non verbal communication abilities. Treatment emphasizes interactive communication within the context of the child’s everyday environments.
