Helps people, by addressing functional mobility, do the things they want and need to do. Physical therapists enable children with disabilities to live life to its fullest through personalized evaluation and interventions designed to reach goals.
 

By addressing – and going beyond! – gross motor developmental milestones like sitting, standing, crawling, and walking, physical therapy lays a broad foundation for all other skills. 

 

How can high-quality physical therapy help children with disabilities? 

By working one-on-one with kiddos, both on horseback and in our child-focused clinic, Children’s TherAplay physical therapists help kiddos develop the skills, such as those listed below, for independence and quality of life.

  • Gross motor skills: requires large muscle groups for balance. These include developmental milestones such as standing, crawling, walking, running, and jumping.
  • Strengthening core muscles as well as extremities to promote stability in all joints as well as shoulder and pelvic girdle. 
  • Motor-planning skills are essential for all coordinated activities, like skipping, hopping on one foot, climbing playground equipment, and dancing.
