Helping children and teens move better

Pediatric physical therapy focuses on developing mobility, strength, flexibility, balance, coordination and endurance in order for a child to be successful at home, in the community and in school.

At the CA Technologies Rehabilitation Center at the Lerner Children's Pavilion we value a team approach. Our physical therapists work in close consultation with pediatricians, orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, coaches and other interventionists to create an individualized therapeutic program to allow your child to excel. Our skilled physical therapists maintain specialized training and advanced certifications. We are experts in addressing the rehabilitative needs that are unique to children from birth through age 21.

Whether it is to get relief from musculoskeletal complaints, injury prevention, injury rehabilitation to get back in the game or to address independent mobility and gross motor skill development, our role is to help children reach their highest potential and level of independence and function. Therapists incorporate unique age appropriate, child friendly strategies to keep children of all ages engaged and motivated during therapy sessions; as this is instrumental to achieving the best outcomes.
