Pediatric Physical Therapy Treatment

Oftentimes when we think about physical therapy, we typically think of rehabilitation for adults who have an injury or who need post-surgical care. But did you know physical therapy can be quite helpful for children, too? Pediatric orthopedic physical therapy is designed to keep your child doing what they do best, playing. We can help address any head or neck asymmetries in infants as well as sports injuries in children of all ages.

We can help with:

• Sports injuries
• Joint pain
• Limping
• Toe walking
• Plagiocephaly
• Torticollis

The typical evaluation process includes assessing skeletal alignment, muscle length, strength, and coordination. Your child’s treatment plan will be tailored to any imbalances found in the evaluation process. No matter what the issue is, the goal is always to facilitate typical infant and child development to decrease future injury risk, promote the enhancement of gross motor skills, and keep your child moving.

To schedule an examination for your child, please give our clinic a call at 541-505-8180. The therapists at Staszak Physical Therapy & Wellness Center are here to help.
