Therapy for kids

Major developmental milestones – like rolling, crawling and walking – have “windows of opportunity” that come and go very quickly. Meeting these windows is the only way to ensure all children grow to reach their fullest potential. At Kids In Motion, we get kids the therapies they need when they need them, regardless of their insurance.

We specialize in physical, occupational and speech therapies.

Pediatric Therapy Services

Physical Therapy

Pediatric Physical Therapists (PTs) are movement specialists who deliver skilled physical therapy services to children and their families. They help children work towards functioning independently and promote participation in various activities at home, school, and the community. Pediatric physical therapists work with children with a wide range of diagnoses from infancy through adolescence. The physical therapist works in close partnership with the child’s family and other members of the rehabilitation team in order to establish a personalized treatment plan.

 

Occupational Therapy

Pediatric Occupational Therapists (OTs) are practitioners who deliver skilled occupational therapy services to children and their families. They help children participate in their daily occupations, or everyday activities. This includes anything from being able to ride the school bus to getting ready for bed at night. OTs help children and their families work towards participation in their various occupations/activities at home, school, and the community. Pediatric occupational therapists work with children with a wide range of diagnoses from infancy through adolescence. The occupational therapist works in close partnership with the child’s family and other members of the rehabilitation team in order to establish a personalized treatment plan and work towards goals that are meaningful and important to the child and the family.

 

Speech Therapy

Pediatric Speech Language Pathologists (SLPs) are practitioners who deliver skilled speech therapy services to children and their families. They treat children with problems with speech, language, thinking, and swallowing. They work to prevent, assess, diagnose, and treat speech, language, social communication, cognitive-communication, and swallowing disorders. Pediatric SLPs work with children with a wide range of diagnoses from infancy through adolescence. The SLP works in close partnership with the child’s family and other members of the rehabilitation team in order to establish a personalized treatment plan and work towards goals that are meaningful and important to the child and the family.

“When my son Evan, was in second grade we noticed that he was having trouble forming the “R” sound in words. I asked that his school evaluate him for speech and was told that he did not qualify for services as his speech was not impaired enough. 

[At Kids In Motion] I was enthusiastically assured that Evan’s “r’s” were an easy fix. After playing fun games with a little “homework” each week, Evan’s speech began to improve. Within six sessions his “R” difficulty was all but corrected. Staff made this difficult speech change fun and my son really enjoyed working with her.

He is now 12 and there is no detection of speech deficiency.”

“To even begin to tell you how much Hillary and Julia have done is impossible. Their efforts and commitment to [our daughter] Tara have been astounding! Tara has a hard time even liking people outside of our family and she loves them and gets so excited when she hears their voices! She has gone 6-8 months ago from laying, sitting, scooting on her bottom, to helping me get her in her crib and way more physical progress. They have helped me get her a walker she loves! To see her being mobile in it and scooting around is amazing! They put so much effort into Tara and continually are thinking of new ways to advance her physical abilities! Thank you for sharing these ladies with us!”

– Amazed mom

“Julia’s approach to therapy with my son has been a delight for him and me. Her imaginative encouraging techniques helped propel my son to master skills that were challenging in the past. My son looks forward to his play times with Julia and I enjoy watching his progress steadily continue with her dedication and great skill.”
